Chapter 8
Computation of Planets
8.1

Planetary motion

Now, all planets move in circular orbits. The number of degrees which each
planet moves in its orbit in the course of a day is fixed. There again, the
number of yojana-s moved per day is the same for all planets. For planets
which move along smaller orbits, the circle would be completed in a shorter
time. For those which move along larger orbits, the circle would be completed
only in a longer period. For instance, the Moon would have completely
moved through the twelve signs in 28 days, while Saturn will complete it
only in 30 years. The length of time taken is proportional to the size of the
orbit. The completion of the motion of a planet once in its orbit is called
a bhagan.a of that planet. The number of times that a planet completes its
orbit during a catur-yuga is called its yuga-bhagan.a (revolutions per aeon).
Now, if the Moon is seen with an asterism on a particular day, it will be
seen the next day with the asterism to the east of it. From this, it might be
understood that the Moon has proper motion (relative to the stars), and that
the motion is eastwards. The sequence of the signs can also be understood
to be eastwards. For all these orbits, a particular point is taken as the
commencing point. This point is termed as the first point of Aries (Mes.a
di).
All the circles considered in a sphere are divided into 21,600 equal parts.
Each part is a minute (ili). They are larger in bigger circles and smaller
in smaller circles, the number of parts being the same in all. The number
of minutes that a planet will move along its orbit during the course of a

472

8. Computation of Planets

day is fixed. If one observes the said motion placing himself at the centre
of the orbit of a planet, then the motion of the planet would appear equal
every day. The centre of the planetary orbit is slightly above the centre of
the Earth. The observer is, however, situated on the Earth. Conceive a
circle touching the planet and with the observer at its centre. The observer
would find the planet that much advanced from the first point of Aries as it
has advanced in the said circle. The method by which this is ascertained is
called the computation of the true planet (sphut.a-kriy
a). We state it here,
deferring the specialties to later sections.

8.2

Celestial Sphere (Bhagola)

Now, there is what is called bhagola-madhya (centre of the celestial sphere).


That is a point from where the stars in general are all taken to be at the
same distance. There, it would seem that the centre of the Earth and the
bhagola-madhya are one and the same. Whatever difference there might be,
will be dealt with later.

8.3

Motion of planets: Conception I

First is stated the computation of the true positions of the Sun and the Moon,
for the reason that it is simple. Now, consider a circle with its centre at the
centre of the celestial sphere. This circle is much smaller than the orbital
circle of the planet. The centre of the orbital circle of the planet (grahabhraman. a-vr.tta) will be on the circumference of this (smaller) circle. This
smaller circle is called mandocca-nca-vr.tta (or manda-nca-vr.tta, mandacircle). The orbital circle of the planet is called pratiman. d.ala (eccentric
circle). The centre of the pratiman.d.ala will move on (the circumference of)
the ucca-nca-vr.tta. The rate of motion of this circle (pratiman. d.ala) will be
the rate of motion of the mandocca. The rate of motion of the planet on
the circumference of the pratiman.d.ala will be the same as the mean motion

8.3 Motion of planets: Conception I

473

(madhya-gati) of the planet. The circles should be so constructed that there


is no gap between the centre (of the pratiman. d.ala) and the circumference
(of the manda-vr.tta), both touching each other.
In the methodologies of computation of true planets, where the centre of a
circle is assumed to be moving on the circumference of another circle, the
east-west line of the moving circle should always be conceived to be along
the east-west direction. The transverse of this line, viz., the north-south line,
is the same as the the up-down line (i.e., the u
rdhv
adho-rekh
a). That line
should always be positioned the same way. There should not be any change
in their directions. It is in this way that the motion should be conceived.
This being the case, when the centre of this circle moves a certain extent on
the circumference of a circle of a certain size, it would be that all the parts
of that moving circle would be moving together on the circle of that size.
When the centre of the moving circle has completed one cycle, it would be
that all the parts of the moving circle have also completed one cycle. Here,
for a planet situated on the circumference of a circle, even if it (the planet)
does not have a motion on its own, it would ultimately result that the planet
would be executing a motion along the same (similar) circle, which the centre
of the circle supporting the planet is executing; the rate of motion being the
same as that of the mandocca. (This motion is) similar to the motion of
persons travelling in a vehicle. Thus, this motion of the planet is due to the
motion of the centre of the pratiman. d.ala.
Now, the Sun and the Moon have manda-ncocca-vr.tta-s, with their centres
at the centre of the bhagola (celestial sphere). Further, they have a planetary
orbital circle (graha-bhraman. a-vr.tta) with their centres on the circumference
of these (manda-ncocca-vr.tta-s). The centre of the planetary orbital circle
will move on the circumference of this mandocca-vr.tta with a rate of motion
equal to that of the mandocca. Besides (this motion), the planets will also
move on their orbital circles with their own mean rates of motion. Thus, the
motion of the planets and the graha-bhraman. a-vr.tta-s have to be conceived.
This is the actual situation.

474

8.4

8. Computation of Planets

Motion of planets: Conception II

The same result can be achieved also through another conception. Construct
a circle which is similar to the graha-bhraman. a-vr.tta, with its centre at the
centre of the celestial sphere. This is called kaks.y
a-vr.tta (orbital circle).
Construct an ucca-nca-vr.tta (or ncocca-vr.tta) with its centre on the circumference of the above-said (orbital) circle. The size of the ucca-nca-vr.tta
will be the same as stated earlier (in conception I). The centre of the uccanca-vr.tta will move on the circumference of the orbital circle at the rate of
the mean planet. And, along the circumference of the ucca-nca-vr.tta, the
planet will move with the speed of the mandocca. Here the ucca-nca-vr.tta
is the support for the motion of the planet. Then, conceive that the centre
of the ucca-nca-vr.tta has the same rate of motion as had been previously
proposed for the planet on the pratiman. d.ala (eccentric circle). Also, suppose
the rate of motion originally proposed for the centre of the pratiman.d.ala (eccentric circle) earlier, to be the rate of motion of the planet moving on the
ucca-nca-vr.tta, whose centre is now supposed to move on the circumference
of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta (orbital circle). Even in this conception, the result will be
the same. In this case, when the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta moves on an
orbital circle equal in size to the eccentric circle, every part of this ucca-ncavr.tta will move on a circle with the same size as the orbital circle. Hence, the
planet moving on the circumference of the ucca-nca-vr.tta, on account of its
support on the (orbital) circle, will consequently be moving on an eccentric
circle of the same size. Here, for the motion of the centre of ucca-nca-vr.tta,
the support is the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala: note its centre; the centre of the eccentric circle, which is the support of the motion of the circumference of the
ucca-nca-vr.tta, will be removed from the (previously mentioned) centre by
the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta.
In the present section on (the computation of) true planets, the motion of the
orbital and other circles must be conceived in such a way, that the ( northsouth and east-west) direction lines marked (on them) remain unchanged
in all cases. Then, it is also to be noted that the measure of the circle, on
which the centre of a circle moves, will be same as the measure of the circle

8.5 The position of Ucca

475

on which all its parts move. Therefore, the mean motion of a planet can be
conceived for the centre of the ncocca-vr.tta, which lies on the circumference
of the orbital circle (kaks.y
a-vr.tta), or for the planet on the pratiman. d.ala,
which has its support on the circumference of this (i.e., ncocca-vr.tta with
centre at the centre of the celestial sphere), since in both cases the result
is the same. In other words, for computing the true planet it is sufficient
to have the two circles, the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala (orbital circle) with its centre
at the centre of the bhagola, and the ucca-nca-vr.tta with its centre on the
circumference of the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala; or the ucca-nca-vr.tta with its centre
at the centre of the bhagola and the pratiman. d.ala (eccentric circle) with its
centre on the circumference of the ucca-nca-vr.tta. One can also have all the
four circles.

8.5

The position of Ucca

Now, find the deviation from the first point of Aries of the apogee of the
Moon (candra-tunga)

as calculated by the rule of three. Mark that point on


the ucca-nca-vr.tta, whose centre is at the centre of the bhagola, and with
that as the centre, construct the eccentric circle. The location of the mean
planet must be marked on the circumference of the eccentric circle by finding
the mean position using the rule of three. Let the centre of the ucca-ncavr.tta be marked on the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta at the point where
the mean planet should be. Then, place the planet on the circumference
of the ucca-nca-vr.tta where the apogee (tunga)

should be. In this model,


the planet will be located at that point of intersection of the circumferences
of the ucca-nca-vr.tta on the kaks.y
a-vr.tta and the pratiman.d.ala, which is
close to the location of the ucca. (In fact) the circumferences of these circles
intersect at two places. The planet will be at that point of intersection of the
circumferences which happens to be in the region of the ucca (ucca-pradesa).

8.6

Ucca, Madhyama and Sphut.a

When the ucca and madhya as derived using the rule of three coincide, then
the centres of all the four circles will be on the same line. Assuming this

476

8. Computation of Planets

(phenomenon) to occur on the east-west line (p


urva-s
utra), herein below is
described how to ascertain the difference between the ucca and the madhya
and the motion of the circles and of the planet.
There, the centre of the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala and that of the ucca-nca-vr.tta
have been presumed to be at the centre of the bhagola. The centre of the
pratiman. d.ala had been presumed to be at the eastern point on the uccanca-vr.tta. Now, presume another ucca-nca-vr.tta on the east-west line itself
with its centre on the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. The tip of the
east-west line of this (second) ucca-nca-vr.tta and the tip of the east-west
line of the pratiman. d.ala will touch one another. Since the intersection of
the circumferences of the ucca-nca-vr.tta and of the pratiman.d.ala is at the
tip of the east-west line, the planet will also be at the tip of the east-west
line. At this moment, since the line from the centre of the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala
and that from the centre of the pratiman. d.ala touching the planet are the
same, there is no difference between the true and mean planets. Now, the
difference between the true and mean (positions of the planet) commences
from this situation where the mean meets the ucca.

8.7

Computation of true Sun

First, the procedure for obtaining true Sun is being explained. Since, the
motion of the centre of the pratiman. d.ala in this case is so small, it might
be considered as if the motion does not exist. The advantage in this presumption is that it would then be sufficient to consider the motion of the
planet alone. This is so in the first conception. In the second conception, we
suppose that the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta alone moves on the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta; then also, the result will be the same. It will
also be advantageous to explain the two types of motion considering them
simultaneously.
Now, when the madhya has moved three signs from its ucca, the centre of
the ucca-nca-vr.tta will be (at the north-point) on the circumference of the

8.7 Computation of true Sun

477

kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Also, the east-point of the ucca-nca-vr.tta would be touching the north-point of the pratiman.d.ala. The planet will be at that point
at that time. Here, the motion of the planet on the circumference of the
pratiman.d.ala and the motion of the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta on the
circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta would be the same.
Now, two bodies, starting from the same point and at the same time and
moving at the same rate on circles having the same dimension, actually
move through the same degrees in their respective circles. Hence, when
the planet and the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta have travelled through onefourth the circumference in their respective circles, they will be at the northpoint of their circles. Here, the east-west line (p
urva-s
utra) common to the
kaks.y
a-vr.tta and the pratiman. d.ala is called ucca-nca-s
utra. (This is called
so) because it touches the points on the circumference of the pratiman. d.ala
farthest from (i.e., ucca), and nearest to (i.e., nca), the centre of the bhagola.
Here, the madhyama would be on the pratiman.d.ala at a distance of three
signs from the east-point.
Now, the sphut.a (true longitude of the planet) is equal to the distance moved
on that circle, whose centre is the centre of the bhagola and whose radius
is equal to the line joining the said centre and the planet. Here, when the
(mean) planet is on the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta at the north point,
the sphut.a would have moved three signs from the ucca. Therefore, when
the madhyama has moved three signs, the planet would be towards the east
of the north-point of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, at a distance separated from it by
the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta. Hence, at that moment, the difference
between the sphut.a and madhyama will be equal to the radius of the uccanca-vr.tta. In other words, the sphut.a will be less than the madhyama by a
measure equal to the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta when it (the madhyama)
has moved by three signs.
Now, the circle that is constructed with its centre at the centre of the bhagola
and with radius equal to the distance therefrom to the planet, would be called
karn.a-vr.tta (hypotenuse-circle). Since this circle and the kaks.y
a-vr.tta have

478

8. Computation of Planets

their centres at one place, the number of minutes of arc (ili) in both are the
same. Hence, the mean planet, which has been presumed (above) to be at
the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta on the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta at
the tip of its north-line, can be assumed to be at the north-point of the karn.avr.tta. Now, the difference from that point (the mean planet on the karn.avr.tta) to the point where the planet lies, will be the sput.a-madhy
antar
alac
apa (arc of the difference between the true and mean). Hence, this sphut.amadhy
antar
ala-c
apa would be got by taking the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta
as the jy
a (Rsine) in the karn.a-vr.tta and finding its arc. Now, since the
madhyama has moved by three signs from the east-point which is on the
ucca-s
utra, if this sphut.a-madhy
antar
ala-c
apa is subtracted from three signs,
the remaining part will be the difference between the planet and the uccas
utra on the circumference of the karn.a-vr.tta. When the ucca (the longitude
of apogee) is added to this, the true position of the planet from the first point
of Aries will result. The above result for the true planet, i.e., how far has
the planet moved in the karn.a-vr.tta, can be obtained even by subtracting,
from the madhyama, that portion of the arc in the hypotenuse circle which
is equal to the difference between sphut.a and madhyama.
Now, when it has been conceived that the ucca is on the east-line and the
madhya is at the ucca, it has also been conceived that the planet is at the
east-point of the pratiman. d.ala, and that the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta is
at the east-point of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. In both these conceptions, the east-line
is the same for both the kaks.y
a-vr.tta and the pratiman. d.ala. Thus, since the
minutes of motion is the same (in both these conceptions) at that instant,
the mean and the true are also the same.
Now, when the planet and the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta, both of which
have the same rate of motion, move by three signs, the planet will reach the
north-point on the pratiman.d.ala and the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta will
be at the north-point of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. While the centre of the ucca-ncavr.tta is conceived to move in such a manner that there is also no change in
the direction lines (drawn on these circles), the planet will not deviate from
the east-point of the ucca-nca-vr.tta. Therefore, at that time, the difference

8.7 Computation of true Sun

479

between the true and mean planet (sphut.a-madhy


antar
ala) will be equal to
the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta.
Then, when it moves by another quarter of a circle, (i.e., three signs), the
planet will be at the west-point on the pratiman. d.ala, and the centre of the
ucca-nca-vr.tta will be on the west-point of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Then also it will
be the case that the planet is at the east-point of the ucca-nca-vr.tta. Since,
the west-line of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta is the same as that of the pratiman. d.ala,
and the minutes of arc at that place is also the same, the true and the
mean planets are the same even at that situation. Thus, even when the
madhyama and the nca are the same, there will be no difference between
the true (sphut.a) and the mean (madhyama).
Now, when the two move by still another quarter of a circle, they will be
at the south-point. Here also, since the planet is at the east-point of the
ucca-nca-vr.tta, the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta is to the west of the planet,
by a measure equal to the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta. Hence, here, the arc
of the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta should be added to the madhyama. That
will be the true planet (sphut.a). Again, moving three signs further, when
(the planet) reaches the ucca, there will be no difference between the sphut.a
and the madhyama.
Thus, the increase and decrease in the difference between sphut.a and madhyama occur, starting from the conjunction of the (madhyama and) ucca,
in accordance with the quarter of the circle (vr.tta-p
ada) occupied by the
madhyama. It is significant to note that if the jy
a (Rsine) of the difference
between the ucca and the madhyama on the pratiman. d.ala is converted by
the rule of three to the ucca-nca-vr.tta, then it will be the jy
a (Rsine) of the
difference between the true and the mean planet.
If it is asked, how it is so (here is the explanation): Now, consider the line
drawn from the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta passing through the centre of the
ucca-nca-vr.tta, which is on the circumference of the former, and meeting
the circumference on the other side (outer side of the ucca-nca-vr.tta). This

480

8. Computation of Planets

line, will represent the minutes of the madhyama-graha. Now, the planet
is situated at the point where the east-line of the ucca-nca-vr.tta and its
circumference meet the circumference of the pratiman.d.ala. The difference
between the planet at that point and the minutes of arc of the madhyama is
the madhyama-sphut. a
ntara. Now, that line is the madhya-s
utra which cuts
the two points of the ucca-nca-vr.tta that are farthest from, and nearest to,
the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Therefore, the tip of this line on ucca-ncavr.tta is the ucca. Hence, the Rsine of the arc in the ucca-nca-vr.tta, which is
the traversed portion between the ucca on the ucca-nca-vr.tta and (the tip
of) the east-line (on it), would be the interstice between the true and mean
planets.
Now, if the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta is at the east-point on the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, then the tip of east-line on the ucca-nca-vr.tta will be
the location of the ucca-point. If, however, the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta
is at the north-east corner in the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, the north-east point of the
ucca-nca-vr.tta would be the ucca-point. If the centre is at the northpoint,
the ucca will be at that point. Thus, the difference between the east-line (of
the kaks.y
a-vr.tta) which has been conceived as the ucca-line, and the centre
of the ucca-nca-vr.tta whose centre is on the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, will be equal to the
interstice between the east-line and the ucca-point on the ucca-nca-vr.tta, in
its own measure. Now, calculate the Rsine of the arc on the kaks.y
a-vr.tta,
between ucca and madhyama. Convert this, by the rule of three, into Rsine
on the ucca-nca-vr.tta. This Rsine will be the Rsine of the difference between
the ucca (sphut.a?) and madhyama. The Rsine of the difference between the
sphut.a and the madhyama will be obtained, even if the rule of three is applied using the Rsine of the arc between the planet and the ucca-point on
the circumference of the pratiman. d.ala. Moreover, the separation between the
ucca-s
utra and the planet in the pratiman.d.ala is the same as the separation
between ucca-s
utra and the planet on the ucca-nca-vr.tta.
Here, when the planet makes one revolution starting from the ucca-point
which has been conceived as the east-point on the pratiman. d.ala, the uccapoint on the ucca-nca-vr.tta will also complete one revolution. Hence, the

8.8 Computation of the Karn.a

481

difference between the ucca-s


utra and the planet in the pratiman.d.ala, and
the difference between the ucca-s
utra and the planet on the ucca-nca-vr.tta
are equal in degrees. Therefore, when the Rsine of the difference between
the ucca and madhyama is multiplied by the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta
and divided by Rsine of three signs (trijy
a or radius), we will get the Rsine
of the difference between the sphut.a and madhyama. If this Rsine is taken as
the Rsine on the karn.a-vr.tta and converted to arc, and applied to the mean
planet, the true planet will be obtained.

8.8

Computation of the Karn.a

Now is stated the method of the computation of the Rsines in the karn.avr.tta. Here, the ucca-s
utra is the line drawn from the centre of the kaks.y
avr.tta and passing through the centre of the pratiman. d.ala and touching the
circumference of the pratiman. d.ala (on the other side). As stated above, it has
been taken as the east-line. The (extended) part of that line towards the west
is the nca-s
utra. And the entire line is termed ucca-nca-s
utra. Consider the
Rsine of the arc on the pratiman. d.ala from the planet to this s
utra; that Rsine
will be the Rsine of the portion corresponding to the madhyamaminusucca.
This segment has its tip at the planet and the base on the ucca-nca-s
utra.
This will be the bhuj
a (lateral) for deriving the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta
(hypotenuse-circle). The kot.i (upright ) is the distance from the base of the
Rsine to the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. And the karn.a (hypotenuse) is the
distance from the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta to the planet.
Now, when the planet is at the ucca (on the circumference) of the pratiman.d.ala, the kot.i would be the difference (sum?) of the Rcosine of the ucca
minusmadhyama and the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta. When, however, the
planet is at the nca on the pratiman.d.ala, the kot.i would be the difference of
the Rcosine of the uccaminusmadhyama and the radius of the ucca-ncavr.tta. The Rcosine of the uccaminusmadhyama is the distance from the
centre of the pratiman. d.ala to the base of the Rsine. The radius of the uccanca-vr.tta would be the distance between the centre of the pratiman.d.ala and
the centre of the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala.

482

8. Computation of Planets

When, the planet is to the east of the north-south line passing through the
centre of the pratiman. d.ala, the kot.i of the hypotenuse circle (karn.a-vr.ttakot.i) would be the sum of the Rcosine (found) with respect to the centre
(of the pratiman.d.ala) and the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta. If, however, the
planet is to the west of the north-south line passing through the centre of
the pratiman.d.ala (and lies just below it), then the base of the Rsine would
fall inside the ucca-nca-vr.tta (drawn at the centre of bhagola). Now, if the
base of the Rsine is to the east of the north-south line of the ucca-ncavr.tta, situated at the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, the Rcosine would be the
distance from the base of the Rsine to the circumference of the ucca-ncavr.tta. When this (segment) lying inside the ucca-nca-vr.tta, is subtracted
from the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta, the remainder, which is the distance
between the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta and the base of the Rsine, would be
the kot.i for the hypotenuse circle. However, if the base of the Rsine is to
the west of the north-south line of the ucca-nca-vr.tta situated at the centre
of the kaks.ya-vr.tta, the kot.i of hypotenuse circle would be the Rcosine from
the centre (of the pratiman.d.ala) minus the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta.
Now, madhyaminusucca is stated to be the kendra. When the bhuj
a and
kot.i thus obtained and related to the karn.a-vr.tta, are squared added together
and the square root of the sum is calculated, the result obtained will be the
distance between the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta and the planet, which is
equal to the radius of the the karn.a-vr.tta in terms of the minutes of arc
of the pratiman.d.ala. When this itself is measured in terms of the minutes
of arc of the hypotenuse circle, it would be equal to trijy
a (Rsine of three
signs). Now, if (the circumference of) any circle is divided by 21,600, each
part would be equal to one minute in that circle. And the radius of the circle
would be equal to Rsine of three signs (trijy
a) in its own measure. Hence,
it was said that (the radius of the hypotenuse circle) measured in terms of
the minutes of arc of the hypotenuse circle, would be equal to trijy
a. Since
there would be increase and decrease in the (dimension of) mandocca-ncavr.tta on account of (the increase and decrease of) the manda-karn.a (the
hypotenuse), it (i.e., the dimension of the mandocca-nca-vr.tta) is always
measured in terms of the minutes of arc of the hypotenuse circle. Only when

8.9 Alternative method for finding the Karn.a

483

this hypotenuse is calculated by avises.a (iteration) will it be converted to


minutes of arc of the pratiman. d.ala. Thus (has been explained) the method
of knowing the measure on the karn.a-vr.tta from the minutes of arc of the
pratiman.d.ala.

8.9

Alternative method for finding the Karn.a

Here is an alternative method of deriving (the hypotenuse). Now, the line


starting from the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta passing through the centre of
the ucca-nca-vr.tta (which is) on the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, and
meeting its circumference (i.e., the circumference of the ucca-nca-vr.tta), is
called madhyama-s
utra, as mentioned earlier. The (perpendicular) distance
from this line to the planet is the difference between the madhyama and
sphut.a. This is called bhuj
a-phala (or doh.-phala). Take this as having its
tip at the planet and base on the madhyama-s
utra. The kot.i-phala would be
the distance from the foot of the bhuj
a and the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta
which is on the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta.
If the planet happens to be situated on (the portion of the circumference
of) the pratiman. d.ala which is outside the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta,
the foot of the bhuj
a-phala would also be outside the circumference of the
kaks.y
a-vr.tta. In that case, if the kot.i-phala is added to the radius of the
kaks.y
a-vr.tta, the result will be the interstice between the foot of the bhuj
aphala and the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. If, on the other hand, the planet is
on the (portion of the) circumference of the pratiman.d.ala which happens to
be inside the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, the foot of the bhuj
a-phala
would be inside the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Then, the kot.i-phala
subtracted from the radius of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta will give the interstice between
the base of the bhuj
a-phala and the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Then, take
the difference between the foot of the bhuj
a-phala and the centre of the
kaks.y
a-vr.tta as the kot.i and the bhuj
a-phala as the bhuj
a. Square the two,
add together (the results) and find the root; the result would be the distance
between the planet and the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, in terms of the minutes

484

8. Computation of Planets

of arc of the pratiman.d.ala, which is the same as the karn.a obtained earlier.
Thus the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta can be derived in two ways.
Now, it is learnt from the madhyama as to how far the planet has moved
in the pratiman. d.ala. The karn.a has been derived above, using which the
distance through which the planet has moved on the karn.a-vr.tta can be
found.

8.10

Viparta-karn.a (Inverse hypotenuse)

Now, is explained the method to derive the radius of the kaks.y


a-vr.tta and
the pratiman. d.ala from the minutes of arc of hypotenuse-circle (karn.a-vr.tta).
Since the working here is just the opposite of the derivation of the hypotenuse, this is called the (method for) inverse hypotenuse (viparta-karn.a).
Here, in the computation of the manda-sphut.a, the difference between the
madhya and sphut.a is measured in terms of the minutes of arc of the mandakarn.a-vr.tta. When the bhuj
a-phala, which is Rsine of the difference between
madhya and sphut.a, is squared and subtracted from the square of the radius
(trijy
a) and the square root found, the result will be the interstice between
the base of the bhuj
a-phala and the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Subtract the
kot.i-phala from this, if the base of the bhuj
a-phala is outside the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, and add otherwise. The result will be the radius of
the kaks.y
a-vr.tta in terms of the minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta.

8.11

Another method for Viparta-karn.a

Here is another method to derive the radius of the pratiman. d.ala in terms of
the minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta. Now, the bhuj
a-jy
a or the Rsine of the
difference between the ucca and sphut.a is in terms of the minutes of arc of the
karn.a-vr.tta. As is well known, sphut.a is the distance moved by the planet on
the karn.a-vr.tta. The bhuj
a-jy
a referred to above has its foot in the ncocca
line and its tip at the planet. The Rcosine of the difference between the

8.12 Still another method for Viparta-karn.a

485

sphut.a and ucca is the distance from the foot of the bhuj
a and the centre of
the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Subtract from this the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta which
is the distance between the centres of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta and the pratiman. d.ala,
in case the foot of the bhuj
a-jy
a is outside the circumference of the ucca-ncavr.tta, otherwise add. Square the kot.i which is left, and the bhuj
a-jy
a, add
them and find the root. The result will be the distance from the centre of
the pratiman.d.ala to the planet, which is the radius of the pratiman.d.ala in
terms of the minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta.

8.12

Still another method for Viparta-karn.a

Now, a method is given to derive the radius (of the pratiman. d.ala) using the
bhuj
a-phala and the kot.i-phala corresponding to the difference between the
sphut.a and the ucca. Now, what is called the Rsine of the difference between
sphut.a and ucca is the Rsine of the arc between the line passing through the
planet and the ucca-nca line on the karn.a-vr.tta. When this Rsine of the arc
between the two lines (s
utra-s) is conceived with respect to the ucca-ncavr.tta at the centre of the karn.a-vr.tta, it will be the Rsine of the difference
between the sphut.a and the ucca (i.e., doh.-phala). This doh.-phala should be
conceived to have its tip at the centre of the pratiman. d.ala and its foot on
the planet-line. The interstice between the foot of this doh.-phala and the
centre of the karn.a-vr.tta on the planet-line will be the kot.i-phala here. And
the karn.a minus this kot.i-phala will be the kot.i. Here, the bhuj
a is the doh.phala. When the two are squared, added together and the root calculated,
the result will be the distance between the centre of the pratiman. d.ala and
planet, which is the radius of the pratiman.d.ala in terms of the minutes of
arc of the karn.a-vr.tta.
This will be the case when the planet is in the ucca region (eastern half of the
pratiman.d.ala). If it is in the nca region (western half of the pratiman. d.ala)
there is a distinction. Here, the interstice between the nca-line and the
planet-line on the karn.a-vr.tta is the Rsine of difference between the sphut.a
and the ucca. This interstice in the ncocca-vr.tta will be the doh.-phala.

486

8. Computation of Planets

Now, there is, on the other side of the nca-s


utra, the remaining portion
of the ucca-nca-s
utra; extend the planet-line also to that side through the
centre of the karn.a-vr.tta. Now, in this case also, the Rsine of the arc between
the extension of the planet-line and the ucca-line is indeed the above-said
bhuj
a-phala. Here also conceive the doh.-phala with its tip at the centre of
the pratiman.d.ala and with its foot on the extended tail of the planet-line.
The kot.i-phala is the distance between the foot of the doh.-phala and the
centre of the karn.a-vr.tta along the extension of the planet-line. When this
kot.i-phala is added to the (portion of the) planet-line, which is the radius
of the karn.a-vr.tta, the result will be the distance from the planet to the
foot of the said doh.-phala. If the square of this is added to the square of
the doh.-phala and the square root is taken, the result will be the distance
from the planet to the centre of the pratiman.d.ala which is the radius of the
pratiman. d.ala in terms of the minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta. It is to be
noted that taking the intervening Rsines in reverse direction does not cause
any change in their measures.
Thus has been stated the methods for deriving the radius of the kaks.y
avr.tta and the pratiman. d.ala in terms of the minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta.
The result so obtained, is called the viparta-karn.a (reverse-hypotenuse).
Now, the karn.a is nothing but the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta measured in
terms of the minutes of arc of the pratiman. d.ala. Since, instead, we employed the reverse process what we obtained is the viparta-karn.a (inverse
hypotenuse). If the square of the radius is divided by this viparta-karn.a, the
result would be the karn.a (hypotenuse) which is the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta
measured in terms of the minutes of the pratiman.d.ala. Here, the radius of
the pratiman. d.ala specified in its (pratiman. d.ala-vr.ttas) own measure in minutes (anantapur
am
a (Rsine of
. sam or 21,600 equal parts), is equal to trijy
three signs) and it is equal to the viparta-karn.a when measured in terms
of the minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta. The radius of the karn.a-vr.tta is
equal to the trijy
a when specified in its own measure. Now, what would it
be if measured in terms of the minutes of arc of the pratiman.d.ala, has to
be calculated by the rule of three. The result would be the radius of the
karn.a-vr.tta measured in terms of the minutes of arc of the pratiman. d.ala.

8.13 Manda-sphut.a from the Madhyama

8.13

487

Manda-sphut.a from the Madhyama

Now, find the Rsine of the arc madhyamaminusucca. That will be the
Rsine of the portion of the pratiman.d.ala lying between the planet and the
ucca-nca-s
utra. If this Rsine is measured in terms of the minutes of arc of
the karn.a-vr.tta and converted into arc, the result will be the portion of the
karn.a-vr.tta lying between the planet and the ucca-nca-s
utra. When this
arc is applied to the ucca or nca, the angle covered by the planet along the
karn.a-vr.tta is obtained. And this will be the sphut.a (true position of the
planet).
We have here the rule of three: The radius of the karn.a-vr.tta in terms of
the minutes of arc of the pratiman. d.ala is equal to the karn.a. This is the
pram
an.a. When the said radius is in terms of the minutes of arc of the
karn.a-vr.tta, it is equal to trijy
a. This is the pram
an.a-phala. The icch
a is the
Rsine of (the portion of) the pratiman. d.ala lying between the planet and the
ucca-nca-s
utra. And, that itself, when converted in terms of the minutes
of arc and treated as a Rsine of the karn.a-vr.tta, would be the icch
a-phala.
When this is applied to the ucca or to the nca in accordance to its nearness
to either, it is the sphut.a (true planet). This process of obtaining sphut.a is
called pratiman. d.ala-sphut.a.
Now, the Rsine of sphut.aminusucca will be the icch
a-phala which has been
mentioned above. The Rsine of madhyaminusucca will be the icch
a-r
asi.
Therefore, when the icch
a-phala is considered as pram
an. a, the icch
a-r
asi is
taken as pram
an.a-phala and the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta which is equal to
trijy
a taken as icch
a-r
asi (and the rule of three applied), the icch
a-phala
got would be the karn.a mentioned above. Here, since the Rsine of madhya
minusucca is the Rsine of a portion of the pratiman. d.ala, it is in terms of
the minutes of arc of the pratiman. d.ala. This is the very Rsine of sphut.a
minusucca also. Further, the two Rsines are equal, because this segment
is perpendicular to the ucca-s
utra and represents the distance between the
planet and the ucca-s
utra. The difference is only because of employing different units for measurement. Since the arc of the sphut.a-kendra (sphut.a

488

8. Computation of Planets

minusucca) is a portion of the karn.a-vr.tta, the Rsine of sphut.a-kendra is in


terms of the minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta. That is, this Rsine is nothing
but the Rsine of sphut.a-kendra in terms of minutes of the karn.a-vr.tta. When
this itself is measured in terms of the arc of the pratiman.d.ala, it is Rsine of
madhya-kendra (madhyaminusucca). If this is equal to trijy
a when measured in terms of the arc of the karn.a-vr.tta, by finding what it will be in
terms of the minutes of arc of the pratiman.d.ala (using rule of three), we
obtain the karn.a that was stated earlier.
The karn.a may also be obtained thus. In this connection, a doubt might
arise as to how the bhuj
a-phala of the madhya-kendra would be in terms of
the minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta, when Rsine of madhya-kendra is in
terms of the minutes of arc of the pratiman.d.ala. Here is the answer: When
the karn.a is large, the mandocca-nca-vr.tta would also be correspondingly
large. When the karn.a is smaller than trijy
a, the mandocca-nca-vr.tta would
also be correspondingly smaller. Hence, the Rsine in this circle would always
be in terms of the minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta. Hence it is that the
manda-karn.a can be derived in this manner. It is again the reason why it
is not necessary to resort to the rule of three to convert the madhya-kendrabhuj
a-phala to minutes of arc of the karn.a-vr.tta, when it has to be applied to
the madhyama. In this manner, since there is an increase and decrease of the
dimension of the mandocca-nca-vr.tta in accordance with the manda-karn.a,
there is this distinction for the manda-karn.a and for the sphut.a derived from
the manda-bhuj
a-phala. (On the contrary), in the sghra (phala) there is no
increase or decrease in the dimension of sghrocca-nca-vr.tta with reference
to its karn.a. Thus (has been stated) the derivation of manda-sphut.a.

8.14

Sighra-sphut
. a (True planets): General

Next is stated the process of sghra-sphut. a. Since the centre of the mandancocca-vr.tta of the Sun and the Moon is at the centre of the bhagola, for
the Sun and the Moon the manda-sphut.a as computed will give their (true)
motion in the bhagola. For Mars and other planets, if we presume a circle


8.14 Sighra-sphut
. a (True planets): General

489

with its centre as the centre of the bhagola and joining the planet, the (true)
motion in the bhagola would be equal to the measure by which it (the planet)
has moved in that circle. The speciality of (Mars and other planets) is this:
There is a sghra-ncocca-vr.tta with its centre at the centre of the bhagola.
The manda-ncocca-vr.tta moves on the circumference of that (sghra-ncoccavr.tta) at the rate of the sghrocca. Hence, at a particular moment, the
centre of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta is that point on the circumference of the
sghra-ncocca-vr.tta, where the sghrocca would lie. The mandocca moves on
this circle (manda-ncocca-vr.tta). Now, presume a pratiman. d.ala circle with
its centre on the manda-ncocca-vr.tta, at that point where the mandocca is
located on the manda-ncocca-vr.tta. Presume also that the planet (grahabimba) moves on the circumference of this pratiman. d.ala. Then, the extent of
motion of the planet at any time along the circumference of the pratiman. d.ala
as measured from Mes.a
di, is known by the madhyama or the mean planet.
Now, presume another circle with its centre at the centre of the mandancocca-vr.tta and touching the planet. This circle is called manda-karn.avr.tta. Manda-sphut.a is ascertained by calculating how much the planet has
moved from Mes.a
di on this manda-karn.a-vr.tta by taking it as the pratiman.d.ala. Now, presume a circle with its centre at the centre of the sghrancocca-vr.tta and touching (i.e., having at its circumference at) the planet.
This (circle) is called sghra-karn. a-vr.tta. The sghra-sphut.a (true planet)
is known by ascertaining the the number of signs etc., through which the
planet has moved in this circle from Mes.a
di.
ghra-sphut.a can be ascertained by presuming the manda-karn.a-vr.tta as the
S
pratiman.d.ala and the manda-sphut. a-graha as the mean planet (madhyama)
and carrying out computations in a manner similar to that (followed in the
case) of manda-sphut.a, and thus the number of signs etc. traversed by the
planet from Mes.a
di, in the sghra-karn. a-vr.tta, would be obtained.
There is a special feature in the case sghra-sphut. a. Here, if the sghrabhuj
a-phala is calculated and measured in terms of the minutes of arc of the
sghra-karn.a , it will become a jy
a (Rsine) of the sghra-karn. a-vr.tta. If this is

490

8. Computation of Planets

converted into arc and applied, the result would be the distance traversed by
the planet in the sghra-karn. a-vr.tta. For this purpose, the sghra-bhuj
a-phala
should be multiplied by trijy
a and divided by the sghra-karn.a. Since the
sghra-bhuj
a-phala is obtained in terms of the minutes of manda-karn.a-vr.tta,
it should be multiplied by trijy
a and divided by sghra-karn.a. In this way, the
sghra-bhuj
a-phala is in terms of the minutes of arc of the sghra-karn.a-vr.tta.
Here, in order to get the manda-bhuj
a-phala in terms of manda-karn.a-vr.tta,
it is not necessary to do such an application of the rule of three. If the
manda-kendra-jy
a-s are multiplied by the radius of the mandocca-nca-vr.tta
and divided by trijy
a, the result will be in terms of the minutes of arc of
the manda-karn.a-vr.tta. The reason for this is this: when the manda-karn.a
becomes large, the mandocca-nca-vr.tta will also become large; when it becomes small, the other will also become small. Thus, the manda-bhuj
a-phala
and kot.i-phala are always measured in terms of the degrees of the mandakarn.a-vr.tta. On the other hand, there is no increase or decrease for the
sghrocca-nca-vr.tta in relation to the sghra-karn.a-vr.tta. Hence, the sghraa-phala will be only in terms of the pratiman.d.ala.
kot.i-phala and sghra-bhuj
So, in order to reduce them in terms of the sghra-karn. a-vr.tta, another application of the rule of three is required.
When the dimensions of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta and sghra-ncocca-vr.tta
were given earlier, it was in terms of the dimensions of their own pratiman.d.ala.
Hence, they have to be first determined in terms of the minutes of arc of
the pratiman. d.ala. But, there is a distinction: the manda-ncocca-vr.tta has
increase and decrease, but the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta has no increase and decrease.
Now, the jy
a-s for the differences between the manda-sphut. a-graha and its
sghrocca are called sghra-kendra-jy
a-s . Since these jy
a-s are measured in
the manda-karn.a-vr.tta they are in terms of the minutes of arc of the mandakarn.a. Since the sghra-vr.tta is measured in terms of the pratiman. d.ala, if
the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta and its radius, which is the sghr
antya-phala, are
multiplied by trijy
a and divided by the manda-karn.a, the results will be
the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta and its radius in terms of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta. If

these are considered as pram


an.a and phala, and also the manda-karn.a-vr.tta,
measured in terms of the minutes of arc of itself, and its radius are considered
as pram
an. a and phala and the sghra-kendra-bhuj
a and kot.i as icch
a-r
asi,
(and the rule of three applied), the icch
a-phala-s thereby obtained would
be the sghra-bhuj
a-phala and sghra-kot. i-phala in terms of the minutes of
arc of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta. Then, apply this kot.i-phala to the radius of
the manda-karn.a-vr.tta which is equal to trijy
a as measured by itself; add
its square to the square of the bhuj
a-phala, and find the square root. The
result would be the distance, in terms of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta, from the
planet to the centre of the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta which is also the centre of the
bhagola. This will be the sghra-karn.a. This (sghra-karn. a) can be computed
in different ways.
The sghra-antya-phala which has been measured in terms of the mandakarn.a-vr.tta, has to be added or subtracted, depending on whether it is
Makar
adi or Karky
adi, to the sghra-kot.i-jy
a; the result thus obtained and
the sghra-kendra-bhuj
a-jy
a have to be squared, added together and the
square root found; this will be the sghra-karn. a, the one which is stated
earlier.
Here, if the manda-sphut.a-graha and the sghrocca, which is the a
dityamadhyama (mean Sun), are subtracted from each other, the result will be
sghra-kendra. The bhuj
a and kot.i-jy
a-s of this are measured in terms of the
minutes of arc in the manda-karn.a-vr.tta. Since these are the jy
a-s measured
in this circle, if they are multiplied by the manda-karn.a and divided by
trijy
a, the result will be jy
a-s of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta measured in terms of
the minutes of arc of the pratiman.d.ala. Now, if these are multiplied by the
sghr
antya-phala (radius of the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta) stated earlier in terms of
the dimensions of the pratiman.d.ala and divided by the manda-karn.a, we get
the sghra-bhuj
a-phala and sghra-kot.i-phala in terms of the minutes of arc
of the pratiman. d.ala. Now, if the kot.i-phala thus obtained is applied to the
manda-karn.a, and its square and the square of this bhuj
a-phala are added
together and the root found, the result will be sghra-karn.a in terms of the
degrees of the pratiman.d.ala.

492

8. Computation of Planets

Again, if the sghra-kendra-kot. i-jy


a and the antya-phala which are measured
in terms of the minutes of arc of the pratiman.d.ala are added to or subtracted from each other, as the case may be, and the square of the result
and the square of the bhuj
a-jy
a are added together and the square root found,
then also will be obtained the sghra-karn.a in terms of the degrees of the
pratiman. d.ala.
Now, multiply the sghra-kendra-bhuj
a-jy
a by the trijy
a and divide by the
(sghra) karn.a. The result will be the jy
a of the interstice between the planet
and the sghrocca-nca-s
utra, in terms of the minutes of arc of the sghrakarn.a-vr.tta. If this is converted to arc and applied to the sghrocca, one can
find the position of the planet in the sghra-karn. a-vr.tta which has its centre
at the bhagola-madhya. Now, multiply the bhuj
a-phala by trijy
a and divide
by the (sghra) karn.a and find the arc. Apply it to the manda-sphut.a-graha,
and this will be the sphut.a as above. Here, if either the bhuj
a-jy
a or the
bh
uj
a-phala, measured in terms of the manda-karn.a, is multiplied by trijy
a,
it has to be divided by the sghra-karn.a which is in terms of the minutes of
arc of the manda-karn.a. (On the other hand) if it is measured in terms of
the minutes of arc of the pratiman. d.ala, then the division has to be made by
the sghra-karn.a measured in terms of the pratiman. d.ala. This is the only
distinction.
J
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta is that circle on whose circumference the planets
motion is known. This is taken to be the pratiman.d.ala. Then, we have
the circle passing through the planet with an appropriate centre (bhagolamadhya), on whose circumference the portion traversed is desired to be
found. Such a circle is called j
neya-bhoga-graha-vr.tta. This circle is taken to
be the karn.a-vr.tta. Then we construct a circle whose centre is the same as
that of the j
neya-bhoga-graha-vr.tta and whose circumference passes through
the centre of the j
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta. Such a circle is called ucca-kendravr.tta. Constituting the three circles as above, derive the karn.a according to
the sghra-ny
aya, and find the sphut.a as instructed above. If this is done, we
can ascertain the motion of the planet on a circle with the desired centre,
and on whose circumference the planet moves. Thus has been explained the
general procedure for finding true planets.

8.15 True Mercury and Venus

493

Now, we describe the construction of the kaks.y


a-vr.tta, when the motion of
the planet is conceived of in terms of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta and the ucca-nca-vr.tta
on the circumference of it. With the centre of the j
neya-bhoga-graha-vr.tta as
centre, construct another circle (whose radius is) equal to the j
na
ta-bhogagraha-vr.tta. This is the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. On the circumference of this construct
the ucca-nca-vr.tta, with a radius equal to the distance between the centres
of the j
na
ta and j
neya-bhoga-vr.tta-s. Here, the centre of the ucca-nca-vr.tta
has to be fixed at that point on the kaks.y
a-vr.tta by considering the measure
of arc traversed by the planet in the j
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta. In this manner,
the rationale behind the sghra-sphut.a can be explained by constructing five
circles. The above is the method for ascertaining true Mars, Jupiter and
Saturn.

8.15

True Mercury and Venus

There is a distinction (in the method to be adopted) for Mercury and Venus.
There too the computation of manda-sphut.a is as above. In the case of
sghra-sphut. a, the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta is large and the manda-karn.a-vr.tta is
small. Therefore, the centre of the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta will fall outside the
circumference of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta. In such cases where the radius of
the ucca-nca-vr.tta, which is the distance between the centres of the j
na
ta
and j
neya-bhoga circles, is larger than the radius of the j
na
ta-bhoga-graha
circle, the circle which stands for the ucca-nca-vr.tta is to be considered
as the kaks.y
a-vr.tta, and the j
nata-bhoga-graha-vr.tta which stands for the
pratiman.d.ala is to be considered as the ucca-nca-vr.tta, lying on the circumference of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Construct the karn.a-vr.tta, which is said to be
the j
neya-bhoga-graha-vr.tta, in such a way that its centre is the centre of the
kaks.y
a-vr.tta itself and the planet is on its circumference. The sphut.a-kriy
a
has to be done with the above as the basis.
Now, if two more circles have to be constructed, construct one circle with its
centre at the centre of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta and of size equal to that of the j
na
tabhoga-graha-vr.tta, which has its centre on the circumference of the kaks.y
avr.tta. Since this new circle is equal in size to j
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta and

494

8. Computation of Planets

has the same centre as the j


neya-bhoga-graha-vr.tta, this should be considered
as the kaks.y
a-vr.tta in accordance with the arguments stated earlier. Still,
since it does not touch the j
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta, consider it as the uccanca-vr.tta. Now, construct a second circle, a pratiman.d.ala equal in size to
the kaks.y
a-vr.tta with its centre on this ucca-nca-vr.tta at the point, which
corresponds in minutes to the distance traversed by the manda-sphut.a on the
j
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta. Thus, in this set up, it would be as if the kaks.y
a
and pratiman. d.ala would have been taken as the ucca-nca-vr.tta-s and the
ucca-nca-vr.tta-s as the kaks.y
a-pratiman.d.ala-s. The j
neya-bhoga-vr.tta would
have been taken as the karn.a-vr.tta. Therefore, it would result that the centre
of the assumed pratiman.d.ala will be moving with the velocity of the planet.
Still its motion should be considered as the ucca-gati and its centre should
be considered as ucca. Though the motion of the centre (kendra-gati) of the
j
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta is to be taken as the the ucca-gati, since the j
na
tabhoga-graha-vr.tta has been considered as the ucca-nca-vr.tta, we should take
it as the graha-gati.
Now, take the centre of the j
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta on the circumference of
the kaks.y
a-vr.tta at the point which has the same measure in minutes as the
madhyama-graha. Then the planet will move along the pratiman. d.ala which
has been conceived in accordance with the proposed picture. Thus, in this
case, the planet will lie where the circumferences of the j
na
ta-bhoga-graha
and the assumed pratiman. d.ala intersect each other, and this will always be
the intersection near the ucca. Now assume the graha-gati on the j
na
tabhoga-graha-vr.tta to be the same as the graha-gati on the circumference of
the ucca-nca-vr.tta, which has its centre on the circumference of the kaks.y
avr.tta. In this set up, it would be as if the graha is taken as ucca, and the ucca
is taken as the graha. Hence, the sghra-bhuj
a-phala which is to be applied to
manda-sphut. a is applied to sghrocca, and the sghra-kendra-bhuj
a-jy
a which
has been measured by the minutes of sghra-karn.a is applied to mandasphut.a-graha. Thus the true motion of Mercury and Venus will be obtained.
Since it is necessary, we have shown here the motions of the grahocca-s and
the rationale of true planets in terms of the scheme of five circles discussed
earlier. Thus when carefully set forth, these concepts will become clear.

Here, the measures of the manda-vr.tta-s and sghra-vr.tta-s for Mars etc.
(i.e., Mars, Jupiter and Saturn) have been set out in tables in terms of
the minutes of arc of the pratiman.d.ala. For Mercury and Venus, however,
since the sghra-vr.tta-s are large, it is the pratiman.d.ala which is measured
in terms of the minutes of arc of this (i.e., sghra-vr.tta) and set out as the
sghra-vr.tta in the text Tantrasangraha.

In other texts, the manda-vr.tta-s of


Mercury and Venus are also measured by the measure of the sghra-vr.tta and
set out (in tables). In Tantrasangraha,

the manda-ncocca-vr.tta-s have been


measured by the minutes of arc of the pratiman. d.ala and set out. For this
reason, the mandocca is subtracted from the madhyama and the manda-phala
is calculated according to the manda-sphut.a-ny
aya. Applying this result to
the madhyama the manda-sphut. a is derived. This (manda-sphut. a) is taken
as the sghrocca and the a
ditya-madhyama (the mean Sun) is taken as grahamadhyama and the sghra-sphut. a is calculated. Since the mandocca-ncavr.tta is smaller than the pratiman. d.ala for these two, calculating the mandasphut.a for Mercury and Venus is similar to that for the other planets. Only,
in the sghra-sphut. a, it is necessary to reverse their grahocca-s, their gati-s
and vr.tta-s. There, if the manda-karn.a is multiplied by the sghra-antyaphala, and divided by trijy
a, we get the radius of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta
in terms of the minutes of arc of the sghra-vr.tta. The reason is that the
pratiman.d.ala has been taken as sghra-karn. a-vr.tta and therefore the mandakarn.a-vr.tta has to be taken as sghra-karn.a-vr.tta. This is all the distinction
in the case of Mercury and Venus. Thus has been stated the derivation of
true planets when there is no viks.epa (latitude).

8.16

ghra correction when there is latitude


S

Now, for the situation when there is viks.epa (latitude), there is a difference.
That is stated here. Now, at the centre of the bhagola (with its centre as the
centre), there is a circle called apakrama (ecliptic). For the present calculations, a consideration of its change of position with reference to place and
time is not required and hence it might (simply) be taken as an exact vertical
circle, situated east-west. Mark off on its circumference twelve (equal) divisions, then construct six circles, passing through those two division-marks

496

8. Computation of Planets

which are diametrically opposite. These (circles) will meet at the north and
south directions of the apakrama as seen from its centre. These two meeting
points (of the circles) are called r
asi-k
u.ta-s (poles of the ecliptic). There will
result twelve interstices due to the six circles. The interstices between two
circles will make the twelve r
asi-s (signs). The middle of these signs will be
in the apakrama circle and the two meeting points at the two r
asi-k
u.ta-s.
These signs will be such that the middle portions are broad and the ends
are pointed. These signs have then to be divided into minutes, seconds, etc.
In the above set up, the sghra-vr.tta is presumed with its centre at the centre
of the apakrama circle and its circumference along the m
arga (in the plane)
of the apakrama circle. It may be recalled that the apakrama circle near
the centre is called sghrocca-nca-vr.tta. The size of the sghra-vr.tta-s will
be different for the different planets. That is all the difference (between
the sghra-vr.tta-s) and there is no difference in their placement as they are
located the same way (i.e., with their centre at the centre of the apakrama
circle and also lying in the same plane).
Now, the manda-ncocca-vr.tta is a circle having its centre on the circumference of the sghra-vr.tta at the point where the mean Sun is. This is the
case for all (the planets). The ascending node (p
ata) has its motion along
the circumference of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta in the retrograde manner. The
point in the manda-ncocca-vr.tta where the p
ata is, will touch the apakramaman.d.ala. One half of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta, commencing from the p
ata
will lie on the northern side of the apakrama-man. d.ala. Again, the point
which is six signs away from the p
ata will touch the apakrama-man. d.ala.
The other half (of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta) will lie on the southern side of
the apakrama-man. d.ala. Here, that point, which is displaced maximum from
the (plane of the) apakrama-man. d.ala, will indicate the maximum viks.epa
(parama-viks. epa) of the planets in terms of the minutes of arc of their respective mandocca-vr.tta-s. Further, the plane of this ncocca-vr.tta itself will
be the plane of the pratiman.d.ala. Hence, the pratiman. d.ala too will be inclined towards the north and south from the plane of apakrama-man. d.ala
in accordance with the ncocca-vr.tta. The manda-karn.a-vr.tta will also be

ghra correction when there is latitude


8.16 S

497

inclined accordingly. Now, the viks.epa has to be obtained from the mandasphut.a.
Here, since the centre of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta is the same as the centre of
the mandocca-vr.tta and since it will be inclined to the plane of apakramaman.d.ala, south and north, accordingly as the mandocca-vr.tta, the maximum
divergence of the circumference of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta from the plane of
the apakrama-man. d.ala will be the maximum viks.epa in the measure of the
manda-karn.a-vr.tta. Hence, if the Rsine of the manda-sphut. a minus p
ata is
multiplied by the maximum viks.epa and divided by trijy
a, the result will
be the is..ta-viks.epa of the planet on the manda-karn.a-vr.tta. This inclination
(deflection from the ecliptic) is called viks.epa.
This being the situation, when the position of the planet is displaced from
the (plane of the) apakrama-man. d.ala, since the dik (direction or plane) of
the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta is not the same as that of the manda-karn. a-vr.tta, it
would not be proper to consider the manda-karn. a-vr.tta as the pratiman. d.ala
in (evaluating) the sghra-sphut. a. However, when the p
ata and manda-sphut.a
occupy the same position (i.e., they have the same longitude), the mandakarn.a-vr.tta can be taken to be in the plane of the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta. (In
other words) when the planet has no viks.epa, this manda-karn. a-vr.tta need
not be conceived to be inclined. However, if the planet in the manda-karn.avr.tta is assumed to be removed maximum from plane of the apakramaman.d.ala, then by moving a quarter of a circle it will be in the plane of
the apakrama-man. d.ala, and from the viks.epa of the planet the inclination
(of the planetary orbit) can be obtained.
(We shall consider the case) when there is no viks.epa for manda-karn.a-vr.tta
(sghrocca-nca-vr.tta ?). Now, calculate the viks.epa-kot.i by subtracting the
square of viks.epa from the square of manda-karn.a-vy
as
ardha (radius of the
manda-karn.a-vr.tta) and taking the root (of the difference). This viks.epa-kot.i
would be (the base of a triangle) with its tip at the planet and having its base
along the line from the centre of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta to the viks.epa (foot
of the perpedicular from the planet on the apakrama-man. d.ala). Construct

498

8. Computation of Planets

a circle with its radius parallel to this viks.epa-kot.i, with the viks.epa-kot.i as
radius. This viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta would have all its parts (i.e., centre and the
circumference) equally away (i.e., parallel) from the apakrama-man. d.ala just
as the ahor
atra-vr.tta would be from the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala. Construct the
sghra-ncocca-vr.tta parallel and away from it.
Since the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta is now parallel to the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta, it
(the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta) will be the pratiman. d.ala for the (calculation of)
the sghra-sphut. a. Subtract the square of the viks.epa in the measure of
the pratiman. d.ala from the square of the manda-karn.a (in the same measure) and find the square-root. This is the viks.epa-kot.i in the measure of
the pratiman. d.ala and the sghra-phala shall have to be calculated with this
viks.epa-kot.i. Taking the viks.epa-kot.i mentioned above as the semi-diameter
and taking it as the manda-karn.a, calculate the sghra-sphut. a as directed
above. The result will be the graha-sphut. a (true planet) on the sghrakarn.a-vr.tta which has its circumference touching the planet and its centre
at a place removed from the centre of the apakrama-man. d.ala to the south
or north by the extent of the viks.epa . This itself will be the sphut.a on the
apakrama-man. d.ala. The minutes (kal
a) in the (viks.epa) kot.i-vr.tta on either
side of the apakrama-man. d.ala will be the same as in the apakrama-man. d.ala
itself. In the kot.i-vr.tta the kal
a-s will be smaller (in length) but there is
equality in number. Just as the measures in the sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta-s will be
the same in number as in the bigger ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala, so also the kal
a-s in
the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta. This will be clear later.
Now, when the square of viks.epa is added to the square of the sghra-karn. a
and the root calculated, the result will be the distance from the centre of
the apakrama-man. d.ala to the planet. This is called the bh
u-t
ar
agraha-vivara
(the distance between the Earth and the planet). Now, the viks.epa got
by multiplying the previously stated viks.epa by trijy
a (radius) and dividing
by bh
u-t
ar
agraha-vivara will be the bhagola-viks.epa. Bhagola-viks.epa is the
extent by which the circumference of the bh
u-t
ar
agraha-vivara-vr.tta, which
has its centre at the centre of the apakrama-man. d.ala, is inclined from the
plane of the latter. For computing the true planet, the bh
u-t
ar
agraha-vivara

ghra correction when there is latitude


8.16 S

is not needed. Here, the minutes (ili-s) are small in accordance with the
nearness of the r
asi-k
u.ta-s, since the number of r
asi-s etc., in the (viks.epa)
kot.i-vr.tta and the apakrama-vr.tta are same. This case is similar to the
case of the sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta-s and ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala, with reference to the
pr
an.a-s. Hence, there is no need for the bh
u-t
ar
agraha-vivara for calculating
the sghra-bhuj
a-phala. Thus has been stated the calculation of sphut.a.
Now, when the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta itself has a viks.epa from the plane of the
apakrama-man. d.ala, and that viks.epa is not along the path of the mandakarn.a-vr.tta: If the manda-karn. a-vr.tta has a different viks.epa than the sghravr.tta, it is shown below how to know the sphut.a and viks.epa .
For this, first ascertain the position of the p
ata in the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta and
the maximum viks.epa therefor. Then ascertain the viks.epa at that moment
for the centre of the corresponding manda-karn.a-vr.tta. For this, subtract
the p
ata of the sghra-vr.tta from the sghrocca; find the Rsine of the difference, multiply by its maximum viks.epa and divide by trijy
a; the result
will give the viks.epa of the centre of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta on the circumference of the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta from the plane of the apakrama-man. d.ala.
Like in the case of the desired apakrama, find its square and subtract it
from the square of trijy
a. The square root of the result will be viks.epa-kot.i.
Then with this viks.epa-kot.i as radius, draw a circle parallel to the plane
of apakrama-man. d.ala. Then that (viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta) will be removed from
the plane of the apakrama-man. d.ala by the extent of the viks.epa. Now, if
the viks.epa-kot.i is multiplied by sghra-antya-phala and divided by trijy
a,
the radius of the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta in terms of the minutes of arc of the
pratiman.d.ala would result. Now, taking this viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta as the sghrancocca-vr.tta and the earlier stated viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta of the manda-karn.avr.tta as the pratiman. d.ala, the sghra-bhuj
a-phala has to be derived. This
has to be applied to the manda-sphut. a (to find the sphut.a).
Thus, if the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta has a deflection in some other direction,
then the measure by which the manda-karn.a-vr.tta will be deflected from the
sghra-ncocca-vr.tta, which itself is deflected (from the apakrama-man. d.ala)

500

8. Computation of Planets

as described above, will be known. Then, if the planet has a viks.epa directly
to the south along the manda-karn.a-vr.tta whose centre lies on the circumference of the sghra-vr.tta, which has a northerly viks.epa from the path of the
apakrama-man. d.ala, then the viks.epa of the planet at that moment would be
the difference between the viks.epa of the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta and the mandakarn.a-vr.tta. If both the viks.epa-s are either to the north and or to the south,
then the viks.epa of the planet would be the sum of the two. This would be
the viks.epa from the plane of the apakrama-man. d.ala.
Thus have been specified the method for the derivation of the sphut.a and
the viks.epa when there is viks.epa for the j
na
ta-bhoga-graha (the true planet)
and the ucca-nca-vr.tta which is (i.e., whose radius is) the difference between
the j
na
ta-(bhoga-graha-vr.tta) and the j
neya-(bhoga-graha-vr.tta). Here, the
method for sphut.a has been stated to show the procedure for all possible
situations that can occur, not that it has actually occurred here.
If it is desired to compute how much Mars has travelled in the circle with
its centre at the centre of the lunar sphere, when the measure by which it
has travelled in a circle with its centre at the centre of the bhagola is known,
then the kaks.y
a-vr.tta of the Moon has to be taken as the ucca-nca-vr.tta for
finding the sphut.a. In such a case, the above situation may occur. This is
also the case (that is, the above procedure has to be adopted) even when the
computations (of the planetary motion) are known for the centre of Moon,
and they need to be converted in terms of the circle with centre at the centre
of the bhagola (celestial sphere).

Calculation of the mean from true Sun and


Moon

Now is described the method of calculating the mean (planet) from the true
(planet). Here, for the Sun and Moon, the Rsine of the distance between the
planet and the ucca-nca-s
utra is the bhuj
a-jy
a of sphut.aminusucca. If this

8.18 Another method for the mean from true Sun and Moon 501
is multiplied by the karn.a and divided by trijy
a and the quotient reduced in
terms of the minutes of arc of pratiman.d.ala, the result will be the Rsine of
the relevant portion of the pratiman.d.ala. If the arc of this is found, and is
applied to the ucca or the nca, the extent to which the planet has travelled
along the pratiman.d.ala is known. If the doh.-phala (bhuj
a-phala) is similarly
reduced in terms of the minutes of arc of the pratiman.d.ala, converted to
arc, and applied to the sphut.a reversely (when it lies between) Mes.a and
Tul
a, then also the mean planet would result. The rationale here is as
follows: The difference (ratio) between Rsine of the uccaminussphut.a and
the uccaminusmadhyama will be similar to the difference (ratio) between
the trijy
a and the karn.a; also the relation between pram
an. a and its phala
and icch
a and its phala are similar.

8.18

Another method for the mean from true Sun


and Moon

Now, even by a successive iteration process (avises.a-karma) involving the


doh.-phala, the mean planet can be obtained from the true planet. Here is
the method therefor: The ucca is subtracted from the sphut.a (true planet)
and doh.-phala is found. If that is applied inversely to the sphut.a, according
to Mes.a-Tul
adi, the approximate mean planet is obtained. Subtract the
ucca from this madhyama, find the doh.-phala and apply it to the sphut.a.
Again, from this mean, subtract the ucca, find the doh.-phala and apply it
to the original sphut.a itself. When these (successive approximations), lead
to indistinguishable results (avises.a), the madhyama will be exact. (In this
method) the karn.a need not be found at all for deriving the manda-sphut.a.
Now, instead of the doh.-phala of the sphut.aminusucca, being multiplied by
the karn.a and divided by trijy
a, if the trijy
aminuskarn.a is multiplied by
sphut.a-doh.-phala and divided by trijy
a, the phal
antara (difference between
the phala-s) will result. Add this to the sphut.a-doh.-phala if Makar
adi, and
subtract if Karky
adi. The result will be the doh.-phala of madhyaminus

502

8. Computation of Planets

ucca. Here trijy


aminuskarn.a is practically the kot.i-phala, since the contribution (to the karn.a) due to the square of the doh.-phala would be very little
(negligible).
Here, if the doh.-phala is multiplied by the kot.i-phala and divided by trijy
a,
the result will be the difference between the sphut.a-doh.-phala and the madhyakendra-doh.-phala. And these will practically be the current khan.d.a-jy
a-s of
the sphut.a-doh.-phala. Since, it is common knowledge that (the value of) the
bhuj
a-khan.d.a is according to the kot.i-jy
a, the bhuj
a-phala-khan. d.a will be according to the kot.i-phala. Take the bhuj
a-phala-c
apa as the jy
a (manda-jy
a),
multiply it by the kot.i-phala and divide by trijy
a; the bhuj
a-phala-khan.d.a
would be obtained. Here, multiply the bhuj
a-phala by the khan.d.a-jy
a and divide by its c
apa. Then also we will get the bhuj
a-phala-khan.d.a of this bhuj
aphala. Here, the bhuj
a-phala-khan.d.a of this bhuj
a-phala might be greater
or less than the bhuj
a-phala calculated from the kendra to which has been
applied the bhuj
a-phala derived from itself. Thus, the madhya-kendra-bhuj
aphala can be obtained by applying reversely the sphut.a-kendra-bhuj
a-phala
successively. When this is applied to the true planet the mean planet is
obtained. Through the above methods, the mean of Sun and Moon can be
derived from their true positions.

8.19

Calculation of the mean from true planet

In the same manner, the mean of the other planets can be derived from their
manda-sphut. a. The method of deriving the manda-sphut.a from the bhuj
aphala of the sghra-sphut. a-kendra is also similar. But there is a difference
that the avises.a (successive iteration to near equality) need not be done.
Multiplication by the karn.a and division by trijy
a too are not necessary.
The manda-sphut. a can be got thus: Multiply the kendra-bhuj
a-jy
a of the
sghra-sphut.a by the vr.tta (360) and divide by 80, and convert this Rsine
(jy
a) in the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta to arc and apply the result to the sghrasphut.a inversely for Mes.a and Tul
a, then the manda-sphut. a is obtained.

8.20 Computation of true planets without using Manda-karn.a 503


Here, it may be noted that when the bhuj
a-phala is calculated for deriving
the (manda) sphut.a from the madhyama, the rule of three using the karn.a
should not be resorted to. On the other hand, there is a need for iteratively
finding the bhuj
a-phala (doing avises.a), when the madhyama is calculated
using the said manda-sphut. a. The rationale for this has been stated. It
will be clear from this that, because karn.a is required for calculating sghrasphut.a from the manda-sphut. a, it (the karn.a) is not required for calculating
manda-sphut.a from sghra-sphut. a. Therefore, it is not necessary to iterate
the bhuj
a-phala till avises.a, since the rationale is the same.
That being the case, when sghra-sphut. a is calculated from the manda-sphut.a
without using the karn.a, if the sghra-bhuj
a-phala is iterated till avises.a and
applied, the sghra-sphut. a would result. On the other hand, if the bhuj
a-phala
is calculated by the rule of three using the karn.a, even if successive iteration
is done without the use of the karn.a, the bhuj
a-phala will be the same.
Here, in the rule of three using kot.i-phala and trijy
a, the icch
a-phala should
be obtained using the sum of the bhuj
a-phala-khan. d.a and the c
apa-khan.d.a.
This has been stated elaborately in the section on Rsines (jy
a-prakaran. a)
and so might be referred to there.

8.20

Computation of true planets without using


Manda-karn.a

By using the same reasoning, it would be possible to obtain the difference


which arises in the sghra circumference due to the manda-karn.a, and the
consequent difference which occurs in the sghra-bhuj
a-phala may be obtained
as manda-phala-khan. d.a. To derive this, first calculate the sghra-bhuj
a-phala
from madhyamaminussghrocca; apply this to the madhyama and subtract
from it the mandocca and get the manda-phala. In that manda-phala, the
manda-phala-khan. d.a-jy
a-s of the sghra-bhuj
a-phala-bh
aga might be increasing or decreasing. Now, when this (manda) phala is derived in this manner,
the difference that occurs in the sghra-phala due to the manda-karn.a, would

504

8. Computation of Planets

have been included also. Now, when this manda-phala is applied to the madhyama, it would be that the difference in phala that occurs in the sghrabhuj
a-phala due to manda-karn. a too would have been (automatically) applied.
Here, when it is intended to separately obtain (in a different manner) the
difference that occurs in the sghra-bhuj
a-phala due to the manda-karn.a, two
trair
asika-s shall have to be used. The first is to multiply the sghra-bhuj
aphala by trijy
a and divide by manda-karn.a. The second is to multiply the
result by trijy
a and divide by sghra-karn.a. Then apply the result according
to the sghra-kendra.
Now is set out as to how these three, viz., the two trair
asika-s and the
third being the condition for their positive or negative nature, arise when we
calculate manda-phala after first applying sghra-doh.-phala. There (in the
first trair
asika), the sghra-doh.-phala is multiplied by trijy
a and divided by
manda-karn.a. The difference, between the result obtained and the original
sghra-doh.-phala, is the difference between the icch
a and its phala of the first
trair
asika. This result will practically be the same if the first gun.ya is multiplied by the difference of the multiplier and the divisor (gun.a-h
ar
antara)
and divided by the divisor. This is practically the same as multiplying by
the manda-kot.i-phala and dividing by the trijy
a.
Here, if the manda-doh.-phala is read off after applying the sghra-doh. -phala
there-through, there also the manda-khan. d.a-jy
a-s related to the sghra-doh.phala are obtained. And this will be the distinction in the sghra-doh. -phala
due to the manda-karn.a. Hence, the phala of the first trair
asika in the sghradoh.-phala can be derived by applying it to the manda-doh.-phala. Here again,
the difference in the sghra-doh.-phala due to the manda-karn.a will be the difference between sghra-doh.-phala and the manda-doh.-phala calculated from
the basic madhyama, and that obtained after applying to the basic madhyama the manda-doh.-phala and sghra-doh.-phala. This will be the result of
the first trair
asika.

8.20 Computation of true planets without using Manda-karn.a 505


The result of the second trair
asika is derived thus: Find the sghra-doh.-phala
calculated from the madhyama to which has been applied the manda-phala
which latter has been derived from the basic madhyama; find also the sghradoh.-phala calculated from that madhyama, which is obtained by applying
sghra-doh.-phala to the madhyama which has been obtained by applying the
manda-phala, which latter has been derived from the basic madhyama. The
difference between the two is the required result. (It might be noted that)
the difference arising from the sghra-karn.a will result in the sghra-karn. abhuj
a-khan.d.a-s, and that from the manda-karn.a will result in the mandabhuj
a-khan.d.a-s.
Now, we consider the karn.a as the trijy
a, the difference between the trijy
a
and karn.a as the kot.i-phala, the arc of the doh.-phala as the full chord (i.e.,
double the Rsine), and the kot.i-phala of the c
apa-khan.d.a
gra as a part of the
madhyama, and we also ignore the grossness (sthaulya) in the calculations
mentioned above. Then, just as the difference that occurs in the sghradoh.-phala due to the manda-karn. a is added to the manda-doh.-phala, the
correction need not be carried out for the manda-kendra, but has to be
appropriately carried out for the sghra-kendra.
Now, it will be shown that even if the correction is made in terms of the
manda-kendra, the result will be same. Here, as regards the increase and
decrease of the sghra-doh. -phala due to the manda-karn.a, the increase will
be when the trijy
a becomes greater than the manda-karn.a, and the decrease
will be when it is less. This will be according to whether the manda-kendra
is Karky
adi or Makar
adi. This result would be reduced in the same manner,
as was the case when earlier, the sghra-phala was corrected by the mandaphala. Now, when first the sghra-phala is positive and the manda-kendra is
within the three signs from Mes.a, then since the manda-karn.a is large, the
corresponding sghra-phala would be small. In this case, the sghra-phala
corresponding to the manda-kot.i should be subtracted. The manda-phala
should also be subtracted. So the two can be subtracted together. However,
when the sghra-phala is positive and the manda-kendra is in the three signs
beginning with Karki, then the contribution to the sghra-phala due to the

506

8. Computation of Planets

manda-karn.a will be positive. Then the sghra-bhuj


a-phalaplusmandakendra would be greater than the basic manda-kendra. When, however, it
is in the even quarters, the further away it moves, the bhuj
a-phala will be
less. When this bhuj
a-phala becomes negative, it is so small that in effect the
sghra degrees will be positive. Then, when the sghra-phala is positive and
the manda-kendra is within the three signs beginning with Tul
a, the mandakarn.a will be less than trijy
a, and the sghra-phala derived from it will be
more. And, since the manda-phala is Tul
adi, it is positive. When however,
the manda-kendra is in the odd quandrants, the manda-phala, calculated
from the madhyama to which sghra-phala had been applied, would be large.
Since this phala is Tul
adi, it is positive. Here also it would be proper to
apply the sghra degrees in accordance with the manda-kendra.
When the manda-kendra is in the three signs beginning with Makara, and
the sghra-phala is positive, then the manda-kendra with the sghra-phala
applied to it will be greater than the basic manda-kendra. Since this is an
even quadrant, and the part passed over is more, the part to be passed over,
which is the bhuj
a-c
apa is smaller. Therefore its manda-phala will be less
than the manda-phala of (i.e., computed from) the basic madhyama. When
this is added to the madhyama and (the manda-phala) is slightly increased,
the correction due to the sghra degrees which is negative would also be
effected herein, since the negativity is due to the manda-karn.a being larger
than trijy
a.
Thus, it is seen that when the sghra-phala is positive in all the four quadrants of the manda-kendra, it would be appropriate if the correction due to
sghra is done in accordance with the manda-kendra. In the same manner,
the positive and negative nature of the sghra derived in accordance with
the manda-kendra is to be inferred even when the sgrhra-phala is negative.
Thus, though the correction to the sghra-phala due to the manda-karn.a is
normally to be applied in accordance with the sghra-kendra, if that is added
to the manda-phala and applied according to the manda-kendra, there will
not be any appreciable difference in the result. This being the case, there
is no necessity of the manda-karn.a for (the derivation of) the sghra-phala.

8.20 Computation of true planets without using Manda-karn.a 507


Therefore, for ease in the computation of sphut.a, the sghra-phala can be
computed and listed (in a table) for making calculations and so also (a table can be made) for the manda-phala. Here, by obtaining the three bhuj
aphala-s and applying two of them to the madhyama (mean), the sphut.a (true
planet) is obtained. This is one School (of explanation).
There is another School which explains that the sghrocca-nca-vr.tta increases
and decreases in accordance with half the difference between the mandakarn.a and the trijy
a. In that School, the sghra-doh.-phala has to be multiplied by trijy
a and divided by half the sum of manda-karn.a and trijya. The
result in degrees has to be added to the manda-phala; for this, the mandaphala has to be derived from the madhyama to which has been applied half
the sghra-phala. This is the only difference (in this School). Other things
are as stated earlier. This is the idea behind the sphut.a correction that is
stated in the Parahita (School) for Mercury and Venus.
The author of Laghum
anasa (i.e., Mu
njala) follows the School, which states
that the manda-ncocca-vr.tta also increases and decreases in accordance with
the half the difference between manda-karn.a and trijy
a. According to that
School, the manda-phala and sghra-phala should be multiplied by trijy
a
and divided by half the sum of the manda-karn.a and trijy
a. The mandaphala should be corrected having obtained the result thus. The sghra-phala
should be multiplied by this difference between the multiplier and divisor
(gun.a-h
ar
antara) and divided by the divisor. The result should again be
multiplied by trijy
a and divided by the sghra-karn. a, and the correction
applied. Thus is explained the computation of the sphut.a in that School.
Therefore, it was directed in the Laghum
anasa to correct the manda-phala
and the sghra-phala by the mandaccheda, which has been obtained by applying half-kot.i. According to this School, if the manda-phala is to be obtained
without the use of manda-karn.a, the manda-phala and the sghra-phala have
to be halved and applied to the madhyama. Then, the manda-phala thus
derived is applied to the basic madhyama (to get the manda-sphut. a). The
sghra-phala derived from this is now applied to the manda-sphut. a. The result will give the sphut.a. The computation, as described in this school, is set

508

8. Computation of Planets

down as four sphut.a-s in several places. In case the manda-karn.a is not used,
the sghra-karn.a-bhuj
a-phala may be set out in a table. Here, since both the
bhuj
a-phala-s are to be multiplied by half the manda-kot.i-phala, and mandaphala has to be derived for both the halves of manda and sghra-phala-s, the
manda-phala is calculated after first applying half of both the bhuj
a-phala-s.
This is the reason for the above-said calculation. Thus has been stated the
computation of true planets.
Now, for Mercury and Venus, the true planet is to be found using the
manda-ncocca-vr.tta and pratiman. d.ala, which are tabulated in terms of their
sghrocca-vr.tta. Here, after mutually interchanging the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta
and pratiman.d.ala, their manda-sphut.a and sghra-sphut. a can be computed
in the same manner as in the case of Mars etc (i.e., Mars, Jupiter and Saturn). Their manda-sphut.a could be supposed to be obtained by applying the
manda-phala to the mean Sun which is conceived as the madhyama. The
manda-karn.a-vr.tta would be that circle whose circumference meets the centre of the pratiman.d.ala, which is taken as the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta which in
turn is constructed at the centre of the bhagola. The centre of the mandapratiman. d.ala will be on the circumference of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta. (In
this set up) it would be as if the planet is at the circumference of the
manda-ncocca-vr.tta (whose centre is) on the circumference of the kaks.y
avr.tta. Hence, the sghra-phala derived from the manda-sphut.a is multiplied
by trijy
a and divided by the manda-karn.a, so as to convert it to minutes of
arc of the manda-karn.a. If it is desired to derive this without the use of the
manda-karn.a, (the method is this): Now, the manda-sphut.a is obtained by
applying the manda-phala on the mean Sun. Apply the sghra-phala calculated from that manda-sphut.a to the basic madhyama. Since that has to be
applied to the manda-sphut.a, apply on itself the manda-phala obtained from
that sghra-sphut. a. The sphut.a (true planet) will be the result. It has to
be remembered here that the difference arising due to the sghra-karn.a has
been incorporated in the table. Hence (the computation) has to be done as
above. Thus (has been stated) the computation of true planets.

Chapter 9
Earth and Celestial Spheres
9.1

Bh
ugola : Earth sphere

Now is demonstrated the situation and motion of the bh


ugola, v
ayugola and
bhagola. The Earth is a sphere supporting on its entire surface all things,
moving and non-moving, maintaining itself (suspended) in the sky at the
centre of the celestial sphere (naks.atra-gola) by its own power, and not depending on any other support. Now, it is the nature of all heavy things to
fall on the Earth from all regions of the sky all around. Hence, the Earth,
everywhere, is below the sky. Similarly, from all locations on the Earth, the
sky is above. Now, the southern half of the Earth-sphere is abundant with
regions of water. And, in the northern half, the land region is in profusion
and watery region less. Then, with the land of India (Bh
arata-khan. d.a) appearing to be in the upward (northern) direction, at the confluence of the
landed and watery division (of the Earth), there is a city known as Lank
a.
Conceive a circular line (vr.tt
ak
ara-rekh
a) from that place, east-west, cycling
round the Earth. On this line are situated four cities (including Lank
a), to
the west Romakapur, to the other (diametrically opposite) side Siddhapura,
and to the east Yavakot.i.
Similarly from Lank
a, conceive another circle round the Earth, which is
north-south across and passing through the upper and lower halves of the
Earth. On this line (are situated), Mah
ameru to the north, Bad.av
amukha
to the south, Siddhapura on the opposite side. This line is the samarekh
a
(north-south standard meridian line). In this line is a city called Ujjayin.

510

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

Now, the places lying on the east-west line mentioned above are called
niraks.a-desa (equatorial places having no latitude).
From all places on that (equatorial) line, can be seen two naks.atra-s (stars)
called Dhruva-s (pole stars), one in the north and the other in the south,
which have no rising or setting. If one moves towards the north from this
line one can see only the northern Dhruva. This Dhruva would have as much
altitude as one moves towards the north. This altitude of the Dhruva is called
aks.a (the terrestrial latitude). From this point on the surface, the southern
Dhruva cannot be seen, since it has gone down (i.e., lies below the horizon).
Where the Dhruva is seen at a particular altitude, there will be seen near
the Dhruva certain stars, some below and moving towards the east and some
above and moving towards the west, but without rising or setting. On the
other hand, similar stars around the southern Dhruva can never be observed
as they are moving below the horizon. However, from the niraks.a-desa (the
equator), it would be possible to see the rising and setting of all the stars,
in regular order. There again, for an observer on the equator, the measure
by which a star is removed at its rise from the east towards the north or
south, is the same as the measure by which it is removed from the zenith
of the observer at the meridian transit. It will also set in the west, at a
point which is exactly opposite to the (rising point on the) east. Rising and
setting (of stars) take place in this manner at the equator (for an observer on
the equator). Even for a place having latitude, the phenomenon is similar.
But the meridian transit would be shifted a little towards the south, if ones
place has a northern latitude.

9.2

Vayugola: Equatorial celestial sphere

Now, (for an observer) on the equator, for a particular star at a particular


place, the vertical circle from the east to the west passing through it would
seem to be the rising-setting path (diurnal circle). Here again, for a star
rising exactly in the east (point on the horizon), the diurnal path would be
the biggest circle. The path of the stars on its either side would be smaller
circles. These circles would gradually become smaller, and the diurnal path

9.3 Bhagola: Zodiacal celestial sphere

511

of the stars very close to the Dhruva will be the smallest of all. This being
the situation, it would seem that this celestial sphere is like a sphere with an
axis fixed at two posts at its two ends, here the posts being the two Dhruva-s.
Now, (for an observer) at the equator, the circle passing through the eastwest points and touching the top and the bottom, right above the top (of the
observer) is known as ghat.ik
a-vr.tta (celestial equator). The several smaller
circles on the two sides of the (ghat.ik
a-vr.tta) are known as sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta-s
(diurnal circles).
Now, from Lank
a, there is another (great) circle rising right above (and below) touching the two Dhruva-s. This is known as daks.in.ottara-vr.tta (prime
meridian). Then there is another (great) circle around the Earth, passing
through the east and west points, and touching the two Dhruva-s (the north
and the south poles). This is Lank
a-ks.itija (horizon at Lank
a). The stars are
said to rise (at the equator) when they touch this Lank
a-ks.itija along that
half of it which lies to the east of the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta, and are said to set
when they touch its western half. And, when they touch the daks.inottaravr.tta, the stars have their meridian transit.
Thus, the three (great) circles, ghat.ik
a, daks.in.ottara, and Lank
a-ks.itija are
mutually perpendicular to each other. The points where they meet each
other are known as svastika-s (cardinal points). There are six of them: i.e.,
along the horizon on the four directions, and at the top and at the bottom.
Between the interstices of all these svastika-s, one-fourth of a (great) circle
will be contained. Therefore, there will be formed eight divisions of a sphere
of equal sizes, cut off by these three circles, four being below the horizon (at
the equator) and four above.

9.3

Bhagola: Zodiacal celestial sphere

Now, the path traced by the Sun in its eastward (annual) motion is known as
apakrama-man. d.ala (ecliptic). This will intersect the ghat.ika-man.d.ala (celestial equator) at two points. From these (two points), at the distance of one-

512

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

fourth of a circle (vr.tta-p


ada), the apakrama-man. d.ala will be removed from
the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala by 24 degrees towards north and south. (These points)
will move further westwards along with the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala. The first point
of contact between the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala with the apakrama-man. d.ala is near
the first point of Aries (Mes.a
di). Then it (apakrama-man. d.ala) will gradually
separate away from it (ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala) towards the north. When a semicircle has been completed, the second contact occurs, near Tul
adi (beginning
point of Libra). From there, it (apakrama-man. d.ala) will again be oriented
towards the south. Again, when half the circle has been completed they will
meet each other. These two points of contact are respectively called p
urvavis.uvat (vernal equinox) and uttara-vis.uvat (autumnal equinox). Now, the
points that are at the middle of these two contacts (equinoxes), where the
circles are separated away the most, are called ayana-sandhi-s (solstices).
Now, when on account of the motion caused by the Pravaha wind, the
Mes.a
di (first point of Aries) rises, at that time Tul
adi (first point of Libra) sets, Makar
adi (first point of Capricorn) will touch the daks.inottara
towards the south from the zenith (kha-madhya) and Karky
adi (first point of
Cancer) will touch the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta towards the north from the ghat.ik
aman.d.ala right below. There, the difference between the apakrama-man. d.ala
and the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala along the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta will be 24 degrees, as it
is the place of maximum divergence (between them). Now, this (apakramaman.d.ala) will rotate according to the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala. Thus when Mes.a
di
(first point of Aries) is at the peak (on the prime meridian), Tul
adi (first
point of Libra) is at the bottom, Makar
adi (first point of Capricorn) would
touch the ks.itija (horizon) at a point which is shifted towards the south
from the west point by 24 degrees, and Karky
adi (first point of Cancer)
would touch the ks.itija (horizon) at a point which is shifted towards the
north from the east point by that much (i.e., 24 degrees). The apakramaman.d.ala would be a vertical circle at that time. When, however, the Mes.a
di
is at the west point, Tul
adi will be at the east point, Karky
adi would be on
the prime meridian, separated away from the kha-madhya (zenith) towards
the north by 24 degrees, and Makar
adi would be on the prime meridian,
separated from the bottom-most point (nadir), towards the south (by 24 de-

9.3 Bhagola: Zodiacal celestial sphere

513

grees). When Tul


adi is at the peak (on the prime meridian), Mes.a
di would
be at the bottom, Makar
adi would touch the ks.itija towards the south of
east point and Karky
adi would touch the ks.itija, towards the north of the
west point. At this time also, the apakrama-man. d.ala would be vertical (i.e.,
a vertical circle). Thus, the situation of the apakrama-man. d.ala changes according to the rotation of the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala, the reason being that the
two are bound together, in a specific way.
Then again, just as the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala is the central (great) circle of the
Pravaha-v
ayugola (equatorial celestial sphere), the apakrama-man. d.ala will
be the central (great) circle of the bhagola (zodiacal celestial sphere). Just
as the two Dhruva-s are situated on the two sides of the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala,
on the two sides of the apakrama-man. d.ala are situated the two r
asi-k
u.ta-s
(poles of the ecliptic). At one of the poles (r
asi-k
u.t a
-s) the southern heads
(ends) of all the r
asi-s (signs) would have gathered together, and at the
other, all the northern heads (i.e., ends) meet. The points where the ends
of r
asi-s meet are called the r
asi-k
u.ta-s.
Herein below is described the situation of the r
asi-k
u.ta-s when the p
urvavis.uvad (vernal equinox) is at the centre of the sky (zenith). At that time, the
apakrama-man. d.ala would be a vertical (circle). The ayan
anta-s (solstices)
of the apakrama-man. d.ala would touch the ks.itija (horizon) north of the
eastern cardinal point and south of the western cardinal point. Between
the ayan
anta-s and the eastern and the western cardinal points, there would
be a difference of 24 degrees.
Again at that time, the r
asi-k
u.ta-s (poles of the ecliptic) would be on the
horizon (ks.itija), 24 degrees west of the north Dhruva and that much to
the east of the south Dhruva. Conceive a (great) circle touching the two
r
asi-k
u.ta-s and kha-madhya (zenith). This will be a rasi-k
u.t a-vr.tta. Now
conceive of another r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta towards the east of Mes.a
di at a distance
equal to one-twelfth of the apakrama-man. d.ala and passing through the r
asik
u.ta-s. That (r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta) would touch a point that much to the west
from Tul
adi at the bottom. The distance would be 30 degrees. This will

514

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

be the second r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Now, the interstice stretching between these
two r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s, east of kha-madhya, is the r
asi of Mes.a (Aries). Down
below, the interstitial stretch between these two r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s would be
the r
asi of Tul
a (Libra).
Now, construct another r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta from the second r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta this
much degrees (i.e., 30 degrees) to the east and down below that much to
the west. The intersticial stretch between the second r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta and the
third one is the r
asi of Vr.s.abha (Taurus); down below it is Vr.scika (Scorpio). Now, the intersticial stretch between the third (r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta) and
the ks.itija is the r
asi of Mithuna (Gemini), and down below their intersticial
stretch is Dhanus (Sagittarius). Thus are the six r
asi-s.
Then, from the zenith (kha-madhya) towards the western side of the apakramaman.d.ala, conceive of two vr.tta-s of equal interstice as above. Then the other
six r
asi-s can be identified, as was done with the first r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and
ks.itija. Now, inside the different r
asi-s, conceive various circles to represent
the divisions of the r
asi, viz., degrees, minutes, and seconds. It is to be noted
that here, in the case of the horizon (ks.itija) and daks.in.ottara-vr.tta, there is
no rotation due to the Pravaha-v
ayu as in the case of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and
apakrama-man. d.ala. Therefore, conceive of another r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta similar to
(i.e., along) the ks.itija for conceiving its rotation. Thus, the entire celestial globe (jyotir-gola) is completely filled by the twelve r
asi-s. When this
celestial globe is conceived with the apakrama-man. d.ala as the centre and
the r
asi-k
u.t a-s on the sides (p
arsva), it is known as bhagola (zodiacal celestial sphere). When the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala is conceived as the centre with the
Dhruva-s on the sides, it is known as v
ayu-gola (equatorial celestial sphere).
When the point of intersection of ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and apakrama-man. d.ala,
at Mes.a
di, is at the zenith, the solstice which is at the end of Gemini
(Mithuna) and the southern pole of the ecliptic (r
asi-k
u.t a) will rise (in the
east). Similarly, (the solstice at) the end of Sagittarius (C
apa or Dhanus)
and the northern r
asi-k
u.ta will set (in the west). Then, on account of the
rotation caused by the Pravaha-wind, those that have risen, reach up to the

9.4 Ayana-calana: Motion of the equinoxes

515

prime meridian, in other words, they touch daks.in.ottara-vr.tta (in the visible
hemisphere), and those that had set will touch the daks.in.ottara down below.
Then, when the end of Gemini and the southern r
asi-k
u.ta set, the end of
Sagittarius and northern r
asi-k
u.ta will rise. Thus, the southern r
asi-k
u.ta
will revolve in consonance with the end of Gemini, and the northern r
asik
u.ta in consonance with the end of Sagittarius. Now, on both sides of the
ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala, at 24 degrees (from it), there are two solsticial diurnal circles. Again, from the two Dhruva-s, at a distance of 24 degrees, there are two
diurnal circles corresponding to the two r
asi-k
u.ta-s. They (the two solstices
and the r
asi-k
u.ta-s) have constant motion along these diurnal circles.

9.4

Ayana-calana: Motion of the equinoxes

Now, on a day when there is no motion of the equinoxes (ayana-calana), the


ends of Virgo and Pisces will be the meeting points of the (great circles of
the) spheres (i.e., the equinoxes); and the ends of Gemini and Sagittarius
will be the meeting points of the ayana-s (solstices). And, on a day when
precession of equinoxes is to be added, the said four points will be at places
removed from the aforesaid ends along the earlier r
asi by a measure equal
to the degrees of the precession of the equinoxes. Again, on a day when
precession of the equinoxes is to be deducted, the four points will be at places
removed from the aforesaid ends along the next r
asi by a measure equal to
the degrees of the motion of the equinoxes. These four points are the points
where the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and apakrama-man. d.ala meet and where they are
most apart respectively. The distance of separation is of course equal to
24 degrees. It is to be noted that what moves would only be the points of
contact of the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and apakrama-man. d.ala.

9.5

The manner of Ayana-calana

Now the manner of the motion. Ascertain the point on the apakramaman.d.ala which the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala cuts on the day when there is no motion.

516

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

Then, for any day for which motion has to be added, the intersection of these
two circles will be at a point behind the first mentioned point by the measure
of the motion (of the equinoxes) for that day. In the same manner, for a day
for which the motion has to be deducted, the intersection of the two circles
will take place at a point in advance of the first mentioned point. (Actually),
the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala will not be moving, and the movement therein would
only be for the point of intersection. (On the other hand), the apakrama-vr.tta
will be moving. On account of this, the r
asi-k
u.ta-s will also have a motion.
But they will not move away from their sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta-s. The motion is
only backward and forward in the r
asi-k
u.ta-sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta. Again the deviation of the r
asi-k
u.ta-s from the Dhruva-s and that of the ayan
anta-s (solstices) in the apakrama-vr.tta from the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala is always 24 degrees.
All these four deviations, (two above and two below), can be demonstrated
on an ayan
anta-r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta. Thus, when one leg of a pair of compasses is
fixed at a point and the other leg is turned to make a circle, the centre of the
circle would be at the point of the fixed leg. That centre is called n
abhi and
also kendra. The line around (traced by the moving leg) is called nemi
(circumference).

Now, when considering the great celestial circles, it is always taken that the
centre of all of them is the centre of the bhagola which is (practically) the
same as the centre of the Earth, and that the magnitude of all these circles
is the same. This is the general conception except in the case of the diurnal
circles (sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta) and the (ucca-nca-vr.tta) circles conceived in the
computation of true positions of the planets. Now, the two great circles,
ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and apakrama-man. d.ala, which have a common centre, intersect each other at two points. But the diameter of the two circles that
passes through the centre and touches the two points of intersection is the
same. But the two diameters which touch the points of maximum divergence
(param
antar
ala) are different for the two circles. The term param
antar
ala
means the place of (or the extent of) the maximum separation (i.e., solstices).
The diameters at the points of maximum divergence of the two circles would
be at right angles to the diameter passing through the intersection of the

9.5 The manner of Ayana-calana

517

ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and apakrama-vr.tta. Hence the ayan
anta-r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta which
touches the points of maximum divergence, will be perpendicular to the two
circles (ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and apakrama-vr.tta). It is always the case that this perpendicular circle touches the poles (p
arsva) of both circles; (and conversely)
touching the poles would imply that the circles are mutually perpendicular.
Here, the ayan
anta-r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta is at right angles, both to the ghat.ik
avr.tta and apakrama-vr.tta. Hence, it will touch the two Dhruva-s and the
r
asi-k
u.ta-s which are the poles of the two (circles namely ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and
apakrama-vr.tta respectively). Thus, it is definitely the case that they, the
poles of the two circles ghat.ik
a and the apakrama, lie in the same circle, and
the distance between the poles and the maximum divergences between the
two circles are equal.
Taking account of the fact that, when on account of motion of the equinoxes
the ayan
anta (solstice) moves, the circle which passes through the ayan
anta
will also pass through the r
asi-k
u.ta, it follows that the ayan
anta-rasi-k
u.t a
(poles of the ecliptic) too would have moved in the direction in which the
apakram
ayan
anta (solstices) has moved. Since it is also the rule that the
ayan
anta (solsticial point) on the apakrama-man. d.ala would on all days (i.e.,
always) be removed from the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala by 24 degrees, it follows that
the r
asi-k
u.ta-s on the two sides (p
arsva) of the apakrama-man. d.ala would be
removed by the same extent, on all days (i.e., always) from the two Dhruva-s
on the sides of the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala. Hence, the sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta of the two
r
asi-k
u.ta-s will be the same always. Thus, it has to be understood that the
two r
asi-k
u.ta-s will swing to the east and the west, on account of the motion
of equinoxes, in their own sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta-s. Then, the distance which a
planet has moved from Mes.a
di can be ascertained through computing the
true planet.
And in order to learn how much it has moved from the point of contact of
the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and apakrama-man. d.ala, the amount of motion of the
equinoxes (ayana-calana) has to be applied to it (i.e., to the true planet).
Then it (i.e., the corrected true planet) is said to be gol
adi. Thus (has been
stated) the mode of the motion of the equinoxes.

518

9.6

Changes in placement due to terrestrial latitude

What is explained above is applicable when one considers the celestial sphere
for an observer having zero-latitude (i.e., on the equator). For him it would
appear that it (the celestial sphere) is rotating towards west (from the east)
due to the (motion of the) v
ayu-gola. It has been stated that, because of this,
it would appear that all the diurnal circles beginning with the circle at the
centre of the v
ayu-gola, namely the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta, would appear as vertical
circles. It has also been stated that the bhagola is inclined to the v
ayu-gola
and that it has a slow motion. Now, when the celestial sphere is considered
from a place having a latitude, it would appear that the v
ayu-gola itself has
an inclination, and that the bhagola too has an inclination in accordance
with the former. This is being explained below.

9.7

Zenith and horizon at different locations on


the surface of the Earth

Now, what is perfectly spherical is called a gola (sphere). The Earth is in


the form of a sphere. On the Earth, which is of this shape, there are people
all over its surface. The feeling that anybody has at any place would be
that the place that he is standing on is the top (of the Earth), that the
surface of the Earth (over which he stands) is flat (horizontal), and that he
is standing perpendicular (to the Earths surface). Consider the spherical
Earth, which is suspended in the centre of the sky, as having two halves, the
upper half and the lower half. Then, for the upper half, the centre seems to
be the place where one stands. Then, the sky below the horizon around on
the sides (p
arsva) would be hidden by the Earth. This being the case, when
celestial bodies enter the horizon (bh
u-p
arsva), their rising and setting take
place. The sky will be visible above this (horizon). The centre of the (visible
portion) is the kha-madhya (zenith). It will be right above the head of the
observer. Here, what has been stated as ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala is the east-west

9.7 Zenith and horizon at different locations

519

vertical circle at the place with no latitude. Its centre will be exactly at the
centre of the Earth. At the two far sides of this will be the two Dhruva-s
(poles). In this configuration, consider a north-south axis passing through
the centre of the Earth and extending to the two poles. Let it be called the
aks.a-dan.d.a (polar axis). This would be like an axle. Consider the celestial
sphere to be attached to it so that when it spins the celestial sphere will
also spin according to it. If so, it is easy to conceive of the variation in the
inclination of the v
ayu-gola in accordance with the difference in the locations
on the Earth.
Here, in the region of no latitude, the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala is a circle which
is exactly east-west, and passes through the zenith. It has been stated
earlier that at the place of no latitude, the horizon (horizontal circle) passing
through the poles at the two sides of the Earth, is the equatorial horizon
(niraks.a-ks.itija). Now, if looked at from the Meru in the North (pole) of the
Earth, the Dhruva will appear at the zenith. Then the equatorial horizon
would be vertical and the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala will appear as the horizon. There,
everybody will have the feeling that the place they are located is one of
uniform motion around (sama-tiryak-gata); and there too, they will feel that
their posture is vertical. This accounts for the difference between the zenith
(kha-madhya) and the horizon (bh
u-p
arsva) at each place (on the surface of
the Earth). This being the case, as one moves from the equator northwards,
the pole will be seen higher and higher up from the horizon. And, as one
moves from the Meru (north pole) southwards, it (Dhruva) will be seen
lower and lower with respect to the zenith, up to the equator. Thus, for
each (observer) in different parts of the Earth, the zenith and the horizon
are different.
Now, conceive ones place to be on the meridian (sama-rekh
a) right northwards of Lank
a. Then, conceive of a (great) circle passing through the zenith,
which is a point lying towards the north of the point of intersection of the
ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta on the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta, and passing through the previously mentioned east and west cardinal points. This
circle is called sama-man.d.ala (prime vertical). Ascertain on the daks.in.ottara-

520

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

vr.tta, the distance between the ghat.ik


a-man.d.ala and the sama-man.d.ala.
Conceive of a circle passing through the east and west cardinal points and
the two points on the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta, one below the north pole by the
abovesaid difference, and another by the same measure above the south pole.
That circle is called the svadesa-ks.itija (local horizon). The portion lying to
the north of the east and the west cardinal points of the equatorial horizon
described above, will be above the local horizon, and the portion lying to
the south of it (i.e., the east and the west cardinal points) will be below (the
local horizon). Now, when such a local horizon is conceived of separately,
the equatorial horizon is called unman.d.ala. Now, just as the six equidistant
cardinal points generated by the three (circles), viz., daks.in.ottara, ghat.ik
a
and equatorial horizon circles (unman.d.ala) gave rise to eight equal spherical sections, in a similar manner, eight equal divisions of the sphere can be
conceived of by (the set of three circles) daks.in.ottara, sama-man.d.ala (prime
vertical) and the local horizon (svadesa-ks.itija). In this manner, six equidistant cardinal points and eight equal spherical divisions are formed whenever
we have three mutually perpendicular great circles.
Now conceive of a fourth circle. Let it be constructed such that, it passes
through the cardinal points (svastika-s) formed by two of the said three circles. Then, by means of this circle, it would seem as if four of the eight
spherical sections (mentioned above) are divided apart. This circle is called
valita-vr.tta (deflected circle). The computation of the distance of the other
two circles from this valita-vr.tta is carried out using the rule of three pertaining to the difference in the circles, and this will be explained later, in detail.
Thus has been explained the nature of v
ayu-gola. The locational distinction
between the v
ayu-gola and the bhagola has already been stated.
Since the Earth is spherical, for observers on different locations of the surface
of the Earth, the altitude of the pole (Dhruva) that is along the tip of the
aks.a-dan.d.a (polar axis) will appear different. Therefore, the v
ayu-gola that
rotates in accordance with the spin of the said axis will appear to rotate with
different inclinations, as has been mentioned earlier. Then, it is to be noted
that the nature of the v
ayu-gola, the difference in the location (sam
ana. sth

9.8 Construction of the armillary sphere

521

bheda) of the bhagola from that of the v


ayu-gola, and the spherical shape of
the Earth these three provide the basis for those calculations pertaining to
the planets, which are to be carried out after the computation of true planets
(graha-sphut. a). Hence, their nature has been stated here in advance.

9.8

Construction of the armillary sphere

Now, in case a clear mental conception of the the circles mentioned above
and their rotation has not been achieved, then construct an armillary sphere
with the necessary circular rings tied appropriately (rotating around the
polar axis) and having a spherical object representing the Earth fixed to
the middle of the axis, and perceive the rotation of the sphere. In this
construction, the prime vertical, north-south circle, the local horizon and the
equatorial horizon need not have to revolve. So, to keep them fixed, employ
a few larger circles and tie them up from outside. The other circles have to
revolve. Hence, tie them up inside by choosing them to be smaller circles.
Represent the jy
a-s by means of strings. Thus (experimenting with this),
clearly understand the situation of (the circles making up) the armillary
sphere and their revolutions.

9.9

Distance from a Valita-vr.tta to two perpendicular circles

Now, let there be certain (say, three) great circles with same dimension and
with a common centre. Herein below is described a method to ascertain the
distance from one circle, namely the valita-vr.tta to the other two. This is
first illustrated by the derivation of the apakrama-jy
a and its kot.i. For this,
suppose the vernal equinox to be coinciding with the zenith for an equatorial
observer. There, the vis.uvad-viparta-vr.tta (the circle passing through the
vernal equinox and the north-south poles) which is perpendicular (viparta)
to the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala at the vernal equinox would also (incidentally) coin-

522

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

cide with the daks.inottara-vr.tta. The ayan


anta-viparta-vr.tta (the perpendicular circle passing through the solstice) will coincide with the equatorial
horizon. When this is the situation of the celestial sphere, construct the
apakrama-man. d.ala, which is nothing but the locus (m
arga) of the eastward
motion of the Sun, such that it passes through (1) the svastika-s (cardinal
points) at the top and bottom (zenith and the nadir), (2) the point on the
horizon which is 24 degrees away from the eastern svastika towards the north
and (3) the point on the horizon which is 24 degrees away from the western
a) with
svastika towards the south. Then, conceive of a desired Rsine (is..ta-jy
its foot at the place which forms the sara with its beginning at the equinox,
and with the tip at the desired point on the apakrama-man. d.ala which lies
to the east of the zenith. This will be the Rsine of the desired part of
the arc of the apakrama-man. d.ala. Now, first it has to be ascertained as to
what would be the distance between the tip of the desired Rsine and the
ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala along the north-south direction, and secondly it has also
to be ascertained as to what would be the distance between the tip of the
Rsine and the daks.in.ottara-man. d.ala along the east-west direction. Herein
below (is given) a method to ascertain the above.
Now, the maximum divergence between the apakrama-man. d.ala and ghat.ik
aman.d.ala can be found on the horizon which is the same as the ayan
antaviparta-vr.tta. Here, the maximum divergence is the Rsine of 24 degrees and
this is the Rsine of the maximum declination (param
apakrama). Then again,
the maximum divergence between the apakrama-vr.tta and the daks.in.ottaravr.tta can also be seen from the ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta itself. Here, the Rcosine of the maximum declination would be the divergence of the apakramaman.d.ala from the pole (i.e., the line joining the north and the south pole).
This is called parama-sv
ahor
atra.
Now, conceive as the pram
an.a the hypotenuse (karn.a), the radius of the
apakrama-man. d.ala, which is the distance between the centre and the circumference of the ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta. Conceive the two maximum divergences, the bhuj
a and kot.i of this hypotenuse, as the respective pram
an.aphala-s. Then conceive as icch
a, the desired Rsine (is..ta-dorjy
a) which has its

9.10 Some Viparta and Nata-vr.tta-s

523

tip at the desired place on the apakrama-man. d.ala. Apply the rule of three.
Then the bhuj
a and kot.i of the is..ta-dorjy
a will be got as icch
a-phala-s, being
respectively the distances from the tip of the dorjy
a to the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala
and to the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta. These two are called is..ta
pakrama (Rsine of
the desired declination) and is..ta
pakrama-kot. i. This is the rationale of the
rule of three for finding the distances between great circles having the same
dimension and a common centre.

9.10

Some Viparta and Nata-vr.tta-s

Herein below (is stated) the method to arrive at the above in an easy manner.
There, we have the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala, vis.uvad-viparta-vr.tta and ayan
antaviparta-vr.tta, being three circles mutually perpendicular (tiryak-gata) to
each other. Construct an apakrama-vr.tta, a little inclined to the ghat.ik
aman.d.ala. Then, conceive of three more circles besides these four circles (as
follows). First, a circle which passes through the two poles and the desired
place in the apakrama-vr.tta is constructed. This (circle) is called ghat.ik
anata-vr.tta. The maximum divergence from this circle to the vis.uvad-vipartavr.tta and the ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta can be seen on the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala.
Construct (the second) circle touching the point of intersection of the ghat.ik
avr.tta and the ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta, and the desired point on the apakramaman.d.ala. This is called vis.uvad-viparta-nata-vr.tta , and since the vis.uvadviparta is the same as the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta, it is (also) called daks.in.ottaranata-vr.tta. The maximum divergence between this circle and (i) the ayan
antaviparta-vr.tta and (ii) the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta can be seen along the vis.uvad-vipartavr.tta.
It might be noted that in the above-said situation of the apakrama-man. d.ala,
the two r
asi-k
u.ta-s (poles of the ecliptic) would be situated on the horizon,
which is the ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta, at 24 degrees towards the east from the
south pole and by the same amount towards the west from the northern pole.
Conceive of still another circle, which passes through the two r
asi-k
u.ta-s and

524

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

a point on the apakrama-man. d.ala, which is one-fourth of the circumference


(90 degrees) away from the desired point on the apakrama-man. d.ala and lies
to the west of the zenith. This is called the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. The maximum
divergence between the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala occurs at a
point which is one-fourth of the circumference (90 degrees) removed from
the place where these two circles intersect. This (maximum) divergence will
occur on the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta.
Since, however, this ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta passes through the two poles, it is
viparta (perpendicular) to the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala. Then again, the tip of
the desired Rsine of the declination (kr
ants..ta-jy
agr
a) on the ecliptic forms
the pole (p
arsva) of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Since it passes through that point,
the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta is perpendicular also to the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Since, as
indicated here, the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta is perpendicular both to the ghat.ik
a
and the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s, the maximum divergence of the latter two will
occur on this ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta. And, that will be equal to the desired
dyujy
a. Thus, the maximum divergence between the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the
daks.in.ottara-vr.tta, which itself is perpendicular to the vis.uvad-vr.tta (celestial
equator), would occur on the y
amyottara (i.e., daks.in.ottara-nata-vr.tta) which
is perpendicular to both these circles.
Since the y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta touches the east and west cardinal points
and the tip of the desired Rsine, the y
amyottara-nata circle is viparta (perpendicular) to both (the above circles). As is known, when two (equal)
circles (inclined to each other) intersect at two points, a third (equal) circle
passing through the points which are at one-fourth the circumference (90 degrees) away from these two intersecting points, happens to be a viparta-vr.tta
(perpendicular circle). Thus it is appropriate that the maximum divergence
that occurs between the first mentioned two circles is on this (perpendicular)
circle.
Here, the circles, viz., the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta which is the same as the vis.uvadviparta-vr.tta, and the ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta which is the same as the horizon, and the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala are mutually perpendicular. Here is a set

9.11 Declination of a planet with latitude

525

up where the division into quadrants (p


ada-vyavasth
a) and division of the
sphere (gola-vibh
aga) have been determined by the said three circles. In this
set-up, the divergence amongst the circles is determined by the two natavr.tta-s, the apakrama-vr.tta and the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. There, the maximum
divergence between the ghat.ik
a and apakrama circles is equal to the maximum declination and occurs in the horizon. The desired Rsine (dorjy
a) is
the distance (agra) from the vis.uvad (equinox) to the desired point on the
apakrama-man. d.ala . Rcosine thereof (dorjy
a-kot.i) is the distance from the
ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta to the point of desired declination. The declination
at the desired place is the Rsine on the ghat.ik
a-nata circle from the point
of contact of the nata (ghat.ik
a-nata) and apakrama circles to the ghat.ik
aman.d.ala. And the is..ta-dyujy
a (day radius) is the Rsine on the nata-vr.tta
from the pole to the desired point on the apakrama-vr.tta.

9.11

Declination of a planet with latitude

It might be noted that the is..ta


pakrama (declination at a desired point) is
also to be found in the above-said circle. Now, the is..ta
pakrama-kot. i is the
Rsine on the daks.in.ottara-nata-vr.tta which is from the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta to
the desired point which is the tip of the (previously stated) dorjy
a. The
Rsine on the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta from the east-west cardinal points to the
tip of the dorjy
a is the kot.i of this is..ta
pakrama-kot. i. Lankodaya-jy

a, which
is nothing but the k
ala-jy
a, is the Rsine from the equinox to the point of
contact of the ghat.ik
a and nata-vr.tta-s. Lankodaya-jy

a-kot.i is the one which


has its tip at the tip of the above jy
a and extends up to the east-west cardinal
points. K
ala-kot.i-jy
a is that which starts from the zenith and with its tip at
the point of contact of the r
asi-k
u.ta and ghat.ik
a-vr.tta on the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta.
The k
ala-kot.yapakrama (declination of the k
ala-kot.i on the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta)
is that which has its tip at the tip of the k
ala-kot.i and commences from the
point of contact of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the apakrama-man. d.ala. This has
to be derived from the maximum declination which has been specified as the
hypotenuse in the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala.

526

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

If a planet has a latitudinal deflection from the point of contact of the r


asik
u.ta and the kr
anti-vr.tta (ecliptic), then the deflection would be along the
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and so the latitude arc (viks.epa-c
apa) would be a remainder
(i.e., extension) of the arc of the k
ala-kot.yapakrama. The sum or difference of
these arcs would be the distance between the latitudinally deflected planet
and the point of contact of the ghat.ik
a and r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s. Now, the
maximum divergence between the ghat.ik
a and r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s is seen in
the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta. And, that is equal to the desired dyujy
a.
Now, the poles (p
arsva) of the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta are the points of contact of the
nata and apakrama circles. Since it is a fact that from the poles (samap
arsva)
all its (i.e., the circles) parts are away by one-fourth of a circle (90 degrees),
the distance between the (point of intersection of) r
asi-k
u.t a and apakrama
is one-fourth of a circle (90 degrees) away from the (point of intersection of)
ghat.ik
a-nata and the daks.in.ottara-nata. These quadrants would have been
divided into two by the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and the y
amyottara (north-south
circle). Here, the northern part of the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala would be the desired
declination. But the southern part would be the dyujy
a. This would be the
maximum divergence between the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta.
Now, the ghat.ik
a-nata passes through the poles (p
arsva) of ghat.ik
a and the
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s. Since the ghat.ik
a and r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s are passing through
the poles of the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta, (we have the following): (Consider) the
radius hypotenuse (trijy
a-karn.a) of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta which commences
from the point of intersection of the ghat.ik
a and r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s, and having
its tip at its contact with the nata-vr.tta. For this karn.a, the maximum divergence stated above, viz., the desired dyujy
a, would be kot.i. If the above is
the case, how much will be the kot.i of the jy
a which is the hypotenuse on the
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta stretching from the point of intersection of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta,
and having its tip at the planet with latitude (viks.ipta-graha). (This kot.i
will be) the distance between the planet-with-latitude and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta.
This will be the declination of the planet that has a latitudinal deflection.

9.11 Declination of a planet with latitude

527

This is the method of deriving the declination of the planet-with-latitude


by applying the rule of three using the Rsine of the arc got by finding the
sum or difference of the arc of the k
ala-kot.i-kr
anti and the arc of the viks.epa.
This icch
a-phala and the pram
an.a-phala might be taken as triangles. Instead of adding the arcs, the Rsines might be added. There again, by mutually multiplying the kot.i-s with the jy
a-s and dividing the product by trijy
a
and adding or subtracting the results appropriately, and again multiplying by the is..ta-dyujy
a and dividing by trijya, the declination of the planeta are the
with-latitude is obtained. Here, the viks.epa-kot.i and is..ta-dyujy
gun.ak
ara-s (multipliers) for k
ala-kot.i-kr
anti. Multiply first the k
ala-kot.ikr
anti by is..ta-dyujy
a and divide by trijy
a. The result will be the distance
from the point of contact of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the kr
anti-vr.tta to the
ghat.ik
a-vr.tta. This will be the jy
a on the apakrama-man. d.ala, from that
point on it from which the planet has a latitudinal deflection, if it is presumed that it has no latitude. Here, instead of multiplying the latitude by
dyujy
a, one might multiply the k
ala-kot.i-kr
anti-kot.i, which is the multiplier
a and divide by trijy
a since, both ways,
of the latitude, by the is..ta-dyujy
the result will be the same. Then it would be as if the k
ala-kot.i-kr
anti and
its kot.i had been multiplied by is..ta-dyujy
a and divided by trijy
a. The results obtained will then be the bhuj
a and kot.i of a circle having its radius
equal to that of the is..ta-dyujy
a. So, multiply the k
ala-kot.i-kr
anti and its
kot.i by the is..ta-dyujy
a-vy
as
ardha, and respectively by the viks.epa-kot.i and
the viks.epa. It has already been stated that if k
ala-kot.i-kr
anti is converted
in terms of is..ta-dyujy
a-vr.tta, the result will be the declination of the planet
with latitude.
Now, when the square of the declination of the planet without latitude
(aviks.ipta-graha) is subtracted from the square of the is..ta-dyujy
a, the result will be the square of the a
dyanta-dyujy
a (antya-dyujy
a). Its root is the
k
alakot.i-kr
anti-kot.i on the dyujy
a-vr.tta. That will also be the kot.i of the
maximum declination. Now, when the square of the is..ta-dorjy
a-kr
anti is
subtracted from the square of trijy
a, the result will be the square of is..tadyujy
a. Here, suppose the planet without latitude is at the tip of the dorjy
a.
Then, its kr
anti-kot.i will be its kr
anti (declination). When the square of

528

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

this declination is also subtracted, it would be as if the square of the kot.ikr


anti and the square of the bhuj
a-kr
anti have also been subtracted. When
the square of the kot.i-kr
anti and the square of the bhuj
a-kr
anti are added
together, the sum would be the square of the parama-kr
anti (maximum declination). When it is subtracted from the square of trijy
a the result would be
the square of the parama-kr
anti-kot. i (Rcosine maximum declination). The
square root thereof is the parama-kr
anti-kot. i. Hence multiply the viks.epa
by parama-kr
anti-kot. i. Multiply also the kr
anti-jy
a of the planet-withoutlatitude (aviks.ipta-graha) by the viks.epa-kot.i. These two added together or
subtracted from one another appropriately, and divided by trijy
a will result
in the declination of the planet with latitude. Thus has been explained the
method of arriving at the declination of a planet with latitude.

9.12

Apakrama-kot.i

Now is explained the method of ascertaining the apakrama-kot. i of a planetwith-declination, extending east-west, being the distance between the planet
and the north-south circle which is the same as the vis.uvad-viparta-vr.tta.
The east and west cardinal points are the poles of the north-south circle.
The tip of the jy
a of the desired declination is the pole of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta.
Now, consider the location on the daks.in.ottara-nata-vr.tta passing through
the poles of these two circles, which touches the tip of the jy
a of the desired declination. A point that is one-fourth circumference (90 degrees)
away from this will touch the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta, since all the points in a circle from its pole are at a distance of one quadrant. Divide this quadrant
into two parts by the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta. The distance between the tip of
the is..ta-kranti-dorjy
a and the north-south circle is the is..ta
-kranti-kot.i. This
remainder of kot.i extends from the north-south circle to the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta
and is the kot.i of the is..ta
pakrama-kot. i. In all circles, quadrants divided into
two will have complementary bhuj
a and kot.i. Thus, it follows that the kot.i
of the is..ta
pakrama-kot. i is the maximum divergence between the r
asi-k
u.ta
and daks.in.ottara-vr.tta-s. Here the pram
an. a is the trijy
a-karn.a which extends from the point of intersection of the north-south and r
asi-k
u.ta circles

9.12 Apakrama-kot. i

529

to the daks.in.ottara-nata-vr.tta along the r


asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. The Rsine of this
maximum divergence is the pram
an. a-phala. The distance from the point
of contact of the north-south circle up to the planet with latitude on the
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta could be taken as the icch
a. From this the distance between
the planet and the north-south circle can be got as the icch
a-phala.
Here is the method for the derivation of the icch
a-r
asi. Now, for a circle with
its tip at the southern cardinal point and having a radius equal to the radius
of the north-south circle, its divergence from the apakrama-vr.tta that occurs
on the horizon and is equal to the maximum dyujy
a (i.e., antya-dyujy
a) is
the pram
an. a-phala. How much is the distance between the apakrama-vr.tta
and the y
amyottara-vr.tta-jy
a, the Rsine which starts from the zenith and has
its tip on the contact with the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. The icch
a-phala would be the
divergence between the north-south and apakrama circles which will be seen
on the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Then to this jy
a add or subtract, appropriately, the
viks.epa-jy
a (Rsine latitude). The result would be the jy
a on the r
asi-k
u.t avr.tta being the jy
a which commences from the point of contact of the northsouth circle, and having its tip on the planet-with-latitude. Multiply this by
the maximum divergence between the r
asi-k
u.ta and north-south circles, and
divide by trijy
a. The result is the distance from the deflected planet to the
north-south circle.
Here, when for the purpose of deriving the icch
a-r
asi, addition and subtraction of viks.epa-jy
a is carried out, mutual multiplication of the kot.i-s and
division by trijy
a are required. Multiplication by maximum divergence is also
needed. For this the following order might be employed: that is, first multiply by the maximum divergence and then multiply by viks.epa-kot.i, since
there will be no difference in the result. Here, when the jy
a on that part of
the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta which lies on the divergence between the north-south and
apakrama circles, is multiplied by the jy
a of maximum divergence between
the r
asi-k
u.ta and north-south circles, and divided by trijy
a, the result will be
the distance between the point of contact from the r
asi-k
u.ta and apakrama
circles to the north-south circle. And that will be the kot.i of the declination
which is the hypotenuse to the jy
a of the planet-without-latitude.

530

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

Now, multiply the kot.i of the jy


a of the divergence between the north-south
and apakrama-vr.tta-s by the maximum divergence between the north-south
circle and the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and divide the product by trijy
a. The result
will be the square root of the difference between the square of the Rcosine
of the declination of the planet-with-latitude, and the square of the abovederived maximum divergence. The rationale here is that in a circle which
has trijy
a (Rsine 90 degrees) as radius, if any Rsine and Rcosine therein
are multiplied by the same multiplier and divided by trijy
a, they will be
converted respectively into the Rsine and Rcosine of a circle having the said
multiplier as radius.
In the above case, the Rcosine in the circle with trijy
a as radius, the maximum divergence will be the maximum declination. Then again, when the
square of the desired declination is subtracted from the square of the is..tadorjy
a, the remainder is the square of the Rcosine of the desired declination.
If this is subtracted from the square of trijy
a, the remainder will be the
square of the maximum divergence between the north-south circle and the
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Subtract from this the square of the Rcosine of the declination of the planet-without-latitude. The result will be the desired square of
the Rcosine. That will be the square of maximum declination.
Now, when the square of the bhuj
apakrama-kot. i and that of the kot.yapakramakot.i are added, the sum will be the square of the anty
apakrama-kot. i. When
that is subtracted from the square of trijy
a, the result will be the square
of anty
apakrama. The root thereof is the anty
apakrama. Now, the viks.epa
(Rsine of the latitude) is multiplied by the maximum declination and viks.epakot.i (Rcosine of the latitude) by the Rcosine of the declination of the planetwith-latitude. When these two results are added or subtracted appropriately
and divided by trijy
a, the result obtained would be the distance from the
planet-with-latitude to the north-south circle.
Suppose, however, that it is not divided by trijy
a and the square of the
declination of the planet with latitude is subtracted from the square of trijy
a.
The root thereof would be the dyujy
a of the planet. By this, divide the earlier

9.12 Apakrama-kot. i

531

result and the result will be the k


ala-dorgun.a (k
ala-jy
a) of the planet-withlatitude. This k
ala-dorgun.a has been explained earlier.
Now, besides (the above circles), conceive of still another circle passing
through the planet with latitude, and the two poles. (Ascertain) the Rsine
starting from the point where it intersects the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta up to vis.uvad
(the intersection point of the ecliptic and the celestial equator) along the
ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala. This Rsine is called k
ala-dorgun.a (k
ala-jy
a). The arc of
this Rsine is measured in pr
an.a-s (units of time equal to one-sixth of a
vin
ad.).
It is the case that the portion between the planet-with-latitude and the
equinox will revolve during this specified time (i.e., above said pr
an.a-s).
The Rsine of this, which is in time units, is k
ala-jy
a. The number of pr
an.a-s
in the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta are equal to the number of minutes (ili) in the twelve
r
asi-s. This will revolve once in 21,600 (anantapura in kat.apay
adi notation)
pr
an.a-s or minutes. Hence, the identity in the number of pr
an.a-s and time
(k
ala). This being the case, just as in the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta, in all the sv
ahor
atravr.tta-s (diurnal circles) also, there will be a revolution of one minute (anantapur
am
an.a. Hence, all the sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta-s have
. sa = 1/21,600) in one pr
to be divided into the number of minutes in a circle (i.e., 21,600), when
the measure of time is required. Then, the distance between the planetwith-latitude and the north-south circle would be as derived above. Since,
that (21,600) is the number (of kal
a-s) when measured on the sv
ahor
atravr.tta of the planet-with-latitude, k
ala-dorgun.a can be taken also as the jy
a
on that sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta. The arc thereof can also be the k
ala-arc, being
the measure of difference between the north-south circle and the r
asi-k
u.t avr.tta, as seen on the sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta of the planet with latitude. Thus
has been stated the method to ascertain the distance of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta

and of the vis.uvad-viparta-vr.tta from the planet with latitude. The Ac


arya
(Nlakan.t.ha Somayaji) has stated so in his Siddh
anta-darpan. a .

Mutiply the Rcosine of the maximum declination (24 degrees)
and the declination of the (aviks.ipta) planet, separately, by the
Rsine and Rcosine of the latitude, and add or subtract the products (as the case may be). The result is the declination of the
planet (with latitude).
Multiply (separately) the maximum declination (24 degrees) and
the kot.i of the is..ta
pakrama of the (aviks.ipta) planet as before
(by the Rcosine and Rsine of the latitude); add or subtract the
products (as the case may be), and divide by the dyujy
a. The
result will be the k
ala-jy
a.

Thus have been described the derivation of the declination of a planet-with


latitude, and also the k
ala-jy
a. And therethrough have been described also
the complete details of the rule of three (for calculating) the divergences
between the (great) circles.

Chapter 10
The Fifteen Problems
10.1

The fifteen problems

Now, towards demonstrating in detail, the above-stated principles, fifteen


problems are posed in relation to the divergence between the said seven
(great) circles.
Now, there are the six items to be known: the maximum declination (antyakr
anti), the desired declination (is..ta-kr
anti), the is..ta-kr
anti-kot.i, the Rsine
of the desired longitude (dorjy
a), Rsine of the right ascension (k
ala-jy
a) and
the nata-jy
a. When two of these (six) are known, herein below (are) the
methods to derive the other four. This can occur in fifteen ways. When one
item is known, mostly, its kot.i can be found by subtracting its square from
the square of trijy
a and finding the root of the result.
Now, the (portions of the) ghat.ik
a, apakrama and vis.uvat-viparta-nata circles
lying between the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta and the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta are separated by
a quadrant of the circle (90 degrees). The quadrants of these circles are bifurcated by the vis.uvad-viparta-vr.tta. And (the portions of) vis.uvad-viparta
and ghat.ik
a-nata circles lying between the vis.uvad-viparta-nata and r
asik
u.ta-vr.tta are separated by the quadrant of a circle (90 degrees). All these
quadrants are bifurcated by the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta. These bifurcated parts will
mutually be bhuj
a and kot.i, for it follows that when quadrants are bifurcated
there will be (mutual) bhuj
a and kot.i.

534

10.2

10. The Fifteen Problems

Problem one

Now, when the maximum declination and actual declination are known, here
is the method to find the other four. For the maximum declination, trijy
a
is the hypotenuse. By finding how much is it for the desired declination,
the dorjy
a can be found. Applying the rule of three: If the divergence
between ghat.ik
a and apakrama is the anty
apakrama (maximum declination)
and the divergence between the north-south circle and apakrama-vr.tta is the
antya-dyujy
a, what will it (i.e., divergence between the north-south circle
and apakrama-vr.tta) be when it (i.e., the divergence between ghat.ik
a and
apakrama) is the desired declination (is..ta
pakrama): we get this divergence
(is..ta
pakrama-kot. i) from the tip of the dorjy
a to the north-south circle. For all
these three, the kot.i-s can be got by subtracting their squares from the square
of the trijy
a and calculating the roots. By the rule of three, the is..ta
pakrama
(declination) is the divergence between ghat.ik
a and y
amyottara-nata while
going from the east-west cardinal points to the tip of the dorjy
a along the
y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta. Then, by finding the maximum extent of these along
the north-south circle, the y
amyottara-nata-jy
a is got. Again by the rule of
three: The is..ta
pakrama-kot. i is the distance from the north pole to the tip
of the dorjy
a and is the divergence between the y
amyottara and (ghat.ik
a)
nata. Then, by finding the maximum divergence in the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta, the
lankodaya-jy

a will be obtained. Such being the case, for the pram


an.a-phala-s in the form of the is..ta
pakrama-kot. i, the mutually corresponding kot.i-s
form the pram
an. a-s. Since, for these pram
an. a-s, dorjy
a-kot.i is the pram
an.aphala and trijy
a forms the icch
a, we get the divergence between (y
amyottara
or ghat.ik
a) nata and ks.itija as nata-kot.i and lankodayajy

a-kot.i. Thus is the


solution to the first problem.

10.3

Problem two

The second (problem) is when the maximum declination and is..ta-kr


anti-kot.i
are known. If for the Rcosine of maximum declination (param
apakramakot.i), trijy
a is the hypotenuse, then what would be the hypotenuse for

10.4 Problem three

535

is..ta
pakrama-kot. i. From this the dorjy
a can be got. Then, calculate (the
other quantities) as in the previous case (i.e., the first problem).

10.4

Problem three

The third (problem) is when the maximum declination and dorjy


a (are
known). Here, (it is to be noted that) the maximum declination is the
distance of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta from the point of contact of the apakramavr.tta and the ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta, and maximum dyujy
a is the distance
from the same point to the vis.uvad-viparta-vr.tta. Taking these as pram
an. aphala-s and taking the dorjy
a as icch
a, the actual apakrama and its kot.i can
be obtained. The rest is as before.

10.5

Problem four

The fourth problem is when the maximum declination and k


ala-jy
a are
known. Now, the k
ala-jy
a is that portion of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta from the vis.uvat
to the (ghat.ik
a) nata-vr.tta. K
ala-kot.i is the portion of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta from
the vis.uvat to the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. By finding the divergence for this in the
apakrama-vr.tta, we get the divergence of the ghat.ik
a and apakrama-vr.tta-s
on the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. This would be k
ala-kot.yapakrama. Now, construct a
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta touching the zenith which is the vis.uvat. The point of contact of this (r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta) and the earlier (referred) r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta will
be on the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta at the horizon (i.e., point of contact of the earlier
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the horizon). That will be towards the west from the
north pole by a measure equal to the maximum declination, and as much to
the east from the south pole. Subtract the square of the k
ala-kot.yapakrama
from the square of k
ala-kot.i and find the root. The result will be the distance from the point of intersection of the ghat.ik
a and r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s to
the second r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Now, if the square of the k
ala-kot.yapakrama is
subtracted from the square of trijy
a and the root extracted, the result will

536

10. The Fifteen Problems

be the jy
a of the arc of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta from the point of contact on the
horizon to the point of contact on the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta. When this jy
a is taken
as the hypotenuse and considered as the pram
an.a, the root derived above,
being the divergence between the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s, can be taken as the bhuj
a
and considered as the pram
an. a-phala. In that situation, the trijy
a would be
the icch
a. The maximum distance between the two r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s, which
is the jy
a of the distance between the zenith to the r
asi-kut.a-vr.tta on the
apakrama-man. d.ala would be the icch
a-phala. The kot.i of this (jy
a) would
be the dorjy
a of the distance on the apakrama-man. d.ala from the zenith to
the nata-vr.tta. The rest (of the calculation) is as done earlier.

10.6

Problem five

Now, the fifth problem relates to knowing the nata-jy


a and maximum declination. Now, nata is that portion of the north-south circle from the zenith to
the (ghat.ik
a) nata-vr.tta. And nata-kot.i is that part of the north-south circle
from the zenith to the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. From the consideration that if the
antya-dyujy
a is the distance on the horizon from the north-south circle to
the apakrama-vr.tta, what would be the distance from the tip of the nata-kot.i,
one would get the distance between the north-south circle and the apakramavr.tta on the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta. Square this and subtract it separately from: (1)
the square of the nata-kot.i, and (2) the square of trijy
a. When the roots
of the two remainders are extracted they would be: (1) the distance from
the point of contact of the north-south circle and the first r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta to
the second r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta, which is to be taken as the pram
an.a-phala, and
(2) the jy
a on the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta from the point of contact of the northsouth circle to the horizon, which is to be taken as the pram
an. a and the
hypotenuse. When trijy
a is the icch
a, the maximum divergence of the two
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s is the icch
a-phala and that is the earlier-said maximum declination. The kot.i of this is the dorjy
a. The rest (of the calculation) is as
before. Thus (have been explained), the five problems involving maximum
declination.

10.7 Problems six to nine

10.7

537

Problems six to nine

Then the sixth problem is the one not involving maximum declination but
involving actual declination and is..ta-kr
anti-kot.i. The root of the sum of the
squares of the above (two) would be the dorjy
a, which is to be taken as the
hypotenuse.
The seventh problem involves the knowledge of the actual declination and
dorjy
a, and calculations are as before.
The eighth problem is when the actual declination and k
ala-jy
a are known.
Find the squares of these two and subtract them from the square of trijy
a.
Find the roots thereof. The results will be the actual dyujy
a and k
ala-kot.ijy
a, which also happens to be the maximum divergence of the nata-vr.tta and
the horizon. Here trijy
a will be the pram
an. a, k
ala-kot.i-jy
a is the pram
an. aphala, and actual dyujy
a is the icch
a. The resultant icch
a-phala will be
dorjy
a-kot.i. The rest (of the calculation) is as before.
Then, the ninth problem is where the actual declination and the nata-jy
a
are known. While nata-jy
a is the distance between the y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta
and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta, the difference between nata-vr.tta and the horizon is
the nata-kot.i-jy
a. From the consideration: when the actual declination is
the first difference, what will be the second difference, the result obtained
is dorjy
a-kot.i; the earlier is the distance from the tip of the dorjy
a to the
horizon. These are the four problems involving actual declination.

10.8

Problems ten to twelve

Then, leaving the above, there is the tenth problem when the is..ta-kr
antikot.i and the dorjy
a (are known). The root of the difference of the squares
of these (two) is the actual declination. The rest is as before.
The eleventh problem is when the k
ala-jy
a and the is..ta
pakrama-kot. i are
known. From the consideration: If trijy
a is the hypotenuse for k
ala-jy
a what

538

10. The Fifteen Problems

is it for is..ta-kr
anti-kot.i, the result would be dyujy
a. Now, when dyujy
a is
multiplied by k
ala-kot.i and divided by trijy
a, the result will be dorjy
a-kot.i.
The first trair
asika is done by the divergence between nata-vr.tta and northsouth circle. And the second trair
asika is done by the distance between
nata-vr.tta and horizon.
The twelfth problem involves the knowledge of the is..ta-kr
anti-kot.i and natajy
a. When the squares of these two are (separately) subtracted from the
square of trijy
a and roots extracted, the two results will respectively be the
jy
a of the portion of y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta from eastern cardinal point to
the tip of the dorjy
a, and the maximum divergence between the y
amyottaranata and the horizon. When these two are multiplied together and divided
by trijy
a, the result will be dorjy
a-kot.i.

10.9

Problems thirteen and fourteen

Then the thirteenth problem is when the dorjy


a and k
ala-jy
a are known.
When these two are squared separately, and each subtracted from the square
of trijy
a and the roots found, their kot.i-s will be got. Then from the consideration: If trijy
a is the hypotenuse for the k
ala-kot.i, what is the hypotenuse
for dorjy
a-kot.i, we get the dyujy
a.
The fourteenth problem is where the dorjy
a and nata-jy
a are known. By
the consideration, if trijy
a is the hypotenuse for nata-kot.i, what will be the
hypotenuse for the dorjy
a-kot.i, will be obtained the jy
a on the (y
amyottara)
nata-vr.tta which is the line from the tip of the dorjy
a to eastern cardinal
point. The kot.i of this is is..ta-kr
anti-kot.i.

10.10

Problem fifteen

Now, knowing the k


ala-jy
a and the nata-jy
a, to derive the other (four items)
is the fifteenth (problem): Here, the distance from the east-west cardinal

10.10 Problem fifteen

539

points to the point of contact of the r


asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta
is the k
ala-jy
a. Then the distance between the east-west cardinal points
to the point of contact of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta
is kr
anti-kot.i. Now, the remaining portion of the k
ala-kot.i from the zenith
is the portion between k
ala-bhuj
a and the horizon. It is also to be noted
that the extent from the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta to the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta is a p
ada
(quadrant) on the y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta. From this, (it follows that) from
the point of contact in the y
amyottara-vr.tta the horizon is also a p
ada (on
the y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta). Such are the modalities here.
In the same manner, the distance between the y
amyottara-svastika and the
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta on the y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta will be the nata-jy
a. Here the
declination is the divergence between the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and horizon on the
ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta. Here too, the extent from the point of contact of the
other nata (i.e., point of contact of y
amyottara-nata and ghat.ik
a-nata) to
the r
asi-k
u.ta is a p
ada; the extent from the southern cardinal point to the
ghat.ik
a-vr.tta is also a p
ada. This will be the situation.
Here, the application of the rule of three is thus: For the hypotenuse which
is equal to the radius of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta which extends from the western
cardinal point to zenith, the nata-jy
a is the maximum divergence of the
y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta; and the k
ala-jy
a is the jy
a for the portion of the
circle from the western cardinal point to the end of the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta. (The
consideration is): When that (i.e., the k
ala-jy
a) is taken as the hypotenuse,
what will be the difference between the y
amyottara and nata-vr.tta-s. The
result will be the ghat.ik
a-nat
antar
ala (the divergence between the ghat.ik
a
and y
amyottara-nata) on the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta. In the same manner, the natajy
a from the southern cardinal point to the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta on the north-south
circle is the icch
a. The pram
an.a-phala is the k
ala-jy
a which is the maximum
distance from the zenith to the (ghat.ik
a) nata-vr.tta. The icch
a-phala is the
distance from the north-south circle to the end of the (ghat.ik
a) nata-vr.tta on
the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. This will be equal to the icch
a-phala derived earlier. The
square of this distance, when subtracted from the square of trijy
a and the
root extracted, would be the divergence between the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and north-

540

10. The Fifteen Problems

south circle, a portion of the r


asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. When the jy
a of this divergence
is taken as the hypotenuse and as pram
an.a, there will arise two divergences
in the circles as pram
an.a-phala-s. Now, the maximum divergences, being
the icch
a-phala-s of these two, will be nata-jy
a-s from the points of contact
between the nata and r
asi-k
u.t a to the (two) svastika-s. Here, that on the
y
amyottara-nata is the is..ta
pakrama-kot. i, and that on the ghat.ik
a-nata is the
is..ta
pakrama (actual declination).
The method of deriving the pram
an. a-phala of them is as follows: First (we
derive), the divergence between the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and (y
amyottara) natavr.tta. Subtract the square of the jy
a on the (relevant) section of the r
asik
u.ta-vr.tta from the square of k
ala-jya and find the root. The result would
be the distance of the first tiryag-vr.tta (transverse circle described below),
and when subtracted from the square of the nata-jy
a and the root found,
the result would be the distance of the second tiryag-vr.tta.
Now, to the depiction of the tiryag-vr.tta-s. The first tiryag-vr.tta is to be
constructed so as to pass through the points of contact of the r
asi-k
u.ta and
north-south circles, which happen to be the poles of the y
amyottara-nata
circle, and also through the east-west cardinal points. The second (tiryagvr.tta) is to pass through the points of contact of the ghat.ik
a and r
asi-k
u.tavr.tta-s, which happen to be the poles of the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta, and also
through the north-south cardinal points. The maximum divergences of these
two circles with the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s will be at the two nata-vr.tta-s. These
will be the actual declination (is..ta
pakrama) and its kot.i.
Thus have been stated the fifteen problems. And thus are the methods of
extension of the rule of three in the case of divergences of circles.

Chapter 11
Gnomonic Shadow
11.1

Fixing directions

Now, the method to identify the (four) directions. First prepare a level surface. It should be such that if water falls at its centre, the water should
spread in a circle and flow forth on all the sides uniformly. That is the indication for a level surface. On this surface draw a circle (in the following
manner): Take a rod slightly bent at both ends and, with one end of the
rod fixed at the centre, rotate the other end on all sides (so that a circle
will result). The point where the end (of the rod) is fixed is known by the
terms kendra and n
abhi (centre). The line resulting from the rotation of
the other end is called nemi (circumference). Fix (vertically) at the centre
a uniformly rounded gnomon (sanku).

On any morning, observe the point


on the circumference where the tip of the shadow of the gnomon graces and
enters into the circle and, in the same manner, also the point where the
tip of the shadow graces the circumference and goes out of the circle in the
afternoon. Mark these two points on the circle with dots. These two points,
between themselves, will be almost along the east-west. For this reason,
these are termed east and west points. These would have been the exact
east and west points if they were the shadow-points of the stars which do
not have any north-south motion. The Sun has a north-south motion on
account of (its motion between) the solstices, and during the interval from
the moment, when the western shadow-point gets marked, to the moment

542

11. Gnomonic Shadow

when the eastern shadow-point is formed, if the Sun has moved north due to
the change in its declination, then to that extent the tip of the shadow would
have moved to the south. If (the correction were to be) done on the eastern
shadow-point, it has to be moved to the north, in order that (the line connecting the two shadow-points) is along the true east-west. The east-point
shall have to be shifted south appropriately if the Sun is moving towards
south (daks.in.a
yana). This shifting would be (measured by) the difference
in the amplitude of the Sun in inches (ark
agr
angula)

which corresponds to
the difference in the declinations at the two instants (of time at which the
shadow-points were marked). Multiply the difference in apakrama (Rsine
of declination) by the inches of the shadow-hypotenuse (ch
ay
a-karn.a
ngula)

of that moment and divide by the local co-latitude (svadesa-lambaka). The


result is the ark
agr
angula

in the shadow-circle (ch


ay
a-vr.tta). Then shift by
this measure, the east shadow-point (towards north or south), in accordance
to the ayana (northward or southward motion of the Sun). If a line is drawn
connecting the shifted point and the western shadow-point that will be the
correct east-west line. Had the above correction been done on the western
shadow-point, the shifting would have to be done in the reverse direction
of the ayana. Then, by constructing intersecting fish-figures (matsya) with
this line, obtain the north-south line. The rising and setting of stars would
be exactly east and west. From this also the directions can be identified.

11.2

Latitude (Aks.a) and co-latitude (Lamba)

Now, that day when the declinations at sunrise and sunset, which are usually
different, are equal, that would be the day of equinox when the Sun will be
at the zenith at noon. The 12-inch gnomonic shadow at that time would be
the equinoctial shadow (vis.uvacch
ay
a). Take the measure of this shadow as
the bhuj
a, and the 12-inch gnomon as kot.i, square them, add the squares
and find the square root thereof and thus derive the hypotenuse (karn.a).
This hypotenuse (should be taken as) the pram
an.a and the gnomon and

11.3 Time after sunrise or before sunset

543

the shadow as the pram


an.a-phala-s. Trijy
a is the icch
a. The two icch
aphala-s are the latitude (aks.a) and the co-latitude (avalamba or lambana).
Corrections enunciated for the vipartacch
ay
a (to be discussed below) have to
be applied to these. They will then be more exact. Here, the latitude is the
distance between the zenith and the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala (celestial equator). It is
the same as the distance between the Dhruva (pole star) and horizon (ks.itija),
measured on the north-south circle. And, the co-latitude is the distance
between the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and the horizon measured on the north-south
circle. It is also equal to the distance between the zenith and the Dhruva.

11.3

Time after sunrise or before sunset

Now, the shadow. Here, for the Sun which moves eastwards on the ecliptic,
there will be a shift north and south, in accordance with the inclination of
the ecliptic. (Now, picture the following): Let the Sun (whose motion is as
stated above) be at a certain point (on the ecliptic) at a desired moment.
Then, construct a circle passing through the Sun on the ecliptic at the given
moment, with its centre on the axis which passes through the two poles and
the centre of the celestial sphere, in such a way that all its parts are equally
removed from the celestial equator (i.e., parallel to the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala) by
the measure of the declination of the Sun at that moment. This circle is the
diurnal circle (sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta) at that moment. Its radius would be the
is..ta-dyujy
a (day-radius). Its quadrants shall have to be demarcated through
the six-oclock circle (unman.d.ala) and the north-south circle. On account of
the motion along the diurnal circle, which occurs due to the Pravaha-v
ayu,
the sunrise and sunset occur. Here, the rate of motion of the Pravaha-v
ayu
is constant and so it is possible to ascertain in a definitive manner by how
much the diurnal circle will move in a specific time. Hence it is possible to
calculate correctly the position of a planet on the diurnal circle, i.e., as to
how much it has risen from the horizon on the diurnal circle at a specific
time after rising, or how much it has to go before it sets.

544

11.4

11. Gnomonic Shadow

Unnata-jya

Now, the Pravaha-v


ayu revolves once in 21,600 pr
an.a-units of time. The
diurnal circle will also complete one revolution during this period. So, demarcate each diurnal circle into 21,600 kal
a divisions. Hence, one division
will rotate (by one minute of arc) in one pr
an.a. Therefore, in ordinary parlance, that portion of the diurnal circle that moves in one pr
an.a, is also
called a pr
an.a by secondary extension of meaning (laks.an.a
). Thus, the
pr
an.a-s elapsed after sunrise and the pr
an.a-s yet to elapse before sunset are
spoken of (in ordinary speech) as gata (past) pr
an.a-s and gantavya (to-go)
pr
an.a-s.
These gata-pr
an.a-s or gantavya-pr
an.a-s would be equal to the difference
between the horizon and the position of the Sun on the diurnal circle of
measure 21,600. Since this is an arc, its Rsine has to be calculated to get
the actual (distance). Now, (it is known that) when Rsines are conceived
north-south, the limit is the east-west line at (i.e., passing through) the
centre of the circle. So also, when the Rsines are conceived east-west, the
limit is the north-south line at the centre of the circle. In the same manner,
in the conception of up and down Rsines in the diurnal circle, the limits
would be the lines at right angles to it passing through the centre of the
diurnal circle. (This is so for the following reason): There will be a total
chord (samasta-jy
a) passing through the points of contact of the unman.d.ala
and the diurnal circle and the axis (aks.a-dan.d.a). A Rsine has to be constructed with the above as the limit from the point of sunrise on the horizon.
Since it is on the horizon that the Sun rises, the gantavya-pr
an. a-s are reckoned from the horizon. Now, the portion of the diurnal circle lying between
the horizon and the unman.d.ala forms the ascensional difference (cara) in
pr
an.a-s. This has to be subtracted from the gata-pr
an.a-s and gantavyapr
an.a-s in the case of the northern hemisphere, since the horizon is to the
north of the east-west svastika-s and is below the unman.d.ala (six-oclock
circle). In the southern hemisphere, however, the ascensional difference in
pr
an.a-s has to be added to the gata and gantavya-pr
an.a-s, since there, the
horizon is above. The result will be the unnata-pr
an.a, i.e., the time in

11.5 Mah
a-sanku

and Mah
acch
ay
a

545

pr
an.a-s elapsed from the unman.d.ala to the position of the Sun as indicated in
the diurnal circle. Calculate the Rsine for this (arc). Then, apply to this the
Rsine of the ascensional difference inversely, i.e., by adding it in the northern
hemisphere and subtracting in the southern hemisphere. The result will be
the unnata-jy
a (i.e., Rsine of the unnata-pr
an.a) from the horizon. This is
the full Rsine pertaining to the two quadrants, of this sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta, and
so it will not be just a half-sine. Therefore for addition and subtraction,
multiplication of the kot.i is not required. Since it itself is the remainder of a
Rsine, mere addition and subtraction could be done. Thus shall be derived
the Rsine of the portion of the diurnal circle for the portion between the
Sun and the horizon. Since the (measure in) seconds (ili) is small, it should
be multiplied by the dyujy
a and divided by trijy
a. The result would be the
unnata-jy
a which would be in terms of seconds of trijy
a-vr.tta.

11.5

Mah
a-sanku

and Mahacchaya: Great gnomon


and great shadow

[Here, it might be noted that] the diurnal circle is inclined to the south
exactly as the celestial equator (ghat.ik
a-vr.tta). Hence, when the unnata-jy
a
which forms as it were the hypotenuse, is multiplied by the lam
. baka and
divided by the trijy
a, the result will be the interstice between the Sun and
the horizon. This is called the mah
a-sanku
(great gnomon, celestial gnomon).
The kot.i of this is the distance between the zenith and the planet. This is
termed mah
acch
ay
a (great shadow, celestial shadow).

11.6

Dr.nman
. d.ala

Now, construct a circle passing through the zenith and the planet. This
(circle) is termed dr.nman

. d.ala. The Rsine and Rcosine in this circle are the


mah
a-sanku

and mah
acch
ay
a which have their tips at the location of the
planet. Since the horizon is on the sides (centered around) the centre of the
Earth (ghana-bh
u-madhya) and the foot of the mah
a-sanku

is on the plane
of the horizon, the dr.nman

. d.ala has its centre at the centre of the Earth.

546

11.7

11. Gnomonic Shadow

Dr.ggolacchaya

People (residing) on the surface of the Earth see a planet only by how much
it has risen from, or is lower than, their horizon at the level of their heads.
Therefore, the great gnomon and great shadow which people on the surface of
the Earth (actually) see are the ones on that dr.nman

. d.ala which has its centre


at the location (dr.nmadhya)

of the observer on the surface of the Earth and


its circumference passing through the planet and the zenith. So, construct a
(observer-centric) horizon, tangential to the surface of the Earth, having all
its parts equally raised by a measure equal to the radius of the Earth from
the horizon through the centre of the Earth. The altitude from this (horizon)
is the gnomon for those on the surface of the Earth. This is called dr.ggolasanku.

What has been stated earlier is the bhagola-sanku.

Subtracting
the radius of the Earth from the bhagola-sanku,

the dr.ggola-sanku

results.
Therefore, the difference between the bases of the two gnomons is equal to
the radius of the Earth on account of the difference between the two horizons.
Now, for the shadow, the base is the vertical line. Since this (vertical) drawn
from the centre of the solid-Earth-sphere and that drawn from (the observer
on) the surface of the Earth are the same, the base of the shadow will be at
the same point. Hence, there is no difference in the (length of the) shadow.
In all cases, the tips of the shadows and the gnomons are at the centre of
the planet.
Now, by squaring and adding the two, viz., the gnomon with its base on
the observer-centric horizon tangential to the surface of the Earth, and the
(related) shadow, and finding the square root, a hypotenuse will be obtained
with respect to (the observer on) the surface as the centre. That is called
dr.kkarn.a. This hypotenuse is in fact derived by the pratiman. d.ala-ny
aya
(rule of calculating the karn.a in eccentric circle). Here the pratiman. d.ala has
its centre at the centre of the Earth, whereas the karn.a-vr.tta has its centre
on the surface of the Earth. The distance between the centres of these two
circles, viz., the radius of the Earth, corresponds to the ucca-nca-vy
as
ardha.
Since, the nca-point is the zenith, the minutes of the karn.a-vr.tta would
naturally be small. Therefore the (length of) the shadow that is measured

11.8 Ch
ay
a-lambana

547

in the units of the karn.a-vr.tta, when converted into those of the trijy
a-vr.tta,
will undergo an increase in its magnitude. To that extent the drop from the
zenith will appear to be large. When the shadow in the celestial circle is
multiplied by trijy
a and divided by dr.kkarn.a, the result will be the shadow
in the dr.ggola (dr.ggolacch
ay
a). Thus (is explained) the method of deriving
the shadow using the principle of the pratiman. d.ala-sphut.a.

11.8

Chaya-lambana

Now, multiply the celestial shadow (bhagolacch


ay
a) by the yojana-s of the
Earths radius and divide by the yojana-s of the hypotenuse (sphut.a-yojanakarn.a), because we want it in terms of the yojana-s of dr.kkarn.a. The result
will take the place of bhuj
a-phala. This will be the ch
ay
a-lambana in terms
of minutes. Add this to the celestial shadow. And the result will be the
shadow in the dr.ggola. Thus has been stated the method to derive the
ch
ay
a-lambana in minutes by the principle of the ucca-nca-sphut.a.

11.9

Earths radius

Now, the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta measured in terms of the minutes of


the pratiman. d.ala is called antya-phala. Here, since the sphut.a-yojana-karn.a
is the radius of the pratiman. d.ala measured in its units, the radius of the
ucca-nca-vr.tta is equal to the yojana-s of the Earths radius.
Now is stated the method to derive the minutes of the radius of the Earth in
terms of the sphut.a-kaks.y
a of the respective planets, when the said sphut.ayojana-karn.a is taken as trijy
a. Now, when trijy
a is taken as the shadow, the
minutes of the yojana-s of the Earth radius will be the lambana (vertical).
In the calculation of what would be the minutes of lambana for a particular
shadow, since the trijy
a is the shadow and is both a multiplier and a divisor,
it can be dropped. So, multiply the desired shadow by the yojana-s of the

548

11. Gnomonic Shadow

radius of the Earth and divide by the sphut.a-yojana-karn.a. The result will be
the minutes of the lambana of the shadow. Here, between the sphut.a-yojanakarn.a and the madhya-yojana-karn. a there is not much difference. Hence one
can divide the yojana of the Earths radius by the madhya-yojana-karn. a.
The result in the case of the Sun would be 863. With this divide the desired
shadow. The result will be the ch
ay
a-lambana (lambana of the shadow) in
terms of minutes. Now, when the ch
ay
a-lambana of the dr.nman

. d.ala is taken
as the hypotenuse, its bhuj
a and kot.i will be the nati and lambana which will
be stated below. How it is to be done is also being stated later. There has
to be such a correction for the shadow.

11.10

Corrected shadow of the 12-inch gnomon

These shadows and gnomons have their tip at the centre of the sphere of
Sun. Now, the rays of the Sun emanate from all over its surface. The
shadow of a gnomon should be taken to extend to the point upto which the
rays from the uppermost part of Suns circumference is obstructed by the
gnomon. The shadows of all 12-inch gnomons are not merely formed by
the rays emanating from the centre of the solar sphere. Hence the gnomon
should (be made to) extend up to the upper part of the circumference of the
solar orb. The distance of separation between that point and the zenith will
be the shadow. Now, the measure of half the orb is the distance from the
centre of the solar sphere to its upper circumference. This will be a full jy
a
in the dr.nman

. d.ala. Hence, if the radius of the orb is multiplied, respectively,


by the gnomon and the shadow and divided by trijy
a, the results will be the
Rsine-differences (khan.d.a-jy
a). Now, add to the gnomon the result got from
the shadow, and subtract from the shadow the result got from the gnomon.
Thus can be derived the gnomon and the shadow relating to the top of the
Suns orb. These form the useful tools for the dr.gvis.aya (values related to
the observer). Though the Rsine-differences have actually to be derived from
the bhuj
a-jy
a and kot.i-jy
a, which have their tips at the centre of the full
jy
a, there would be little difference even if they are derived from the tip of
the full jy
a. Hence it was directed above to make use of them.

11.11 Vipartacch
ay
a : Reverse shadow

549

In the same manner, if the lambana and the Rsine-differences relating to the
radius of the orbit are corrected, the corrected gnomon and shadow which
have their tips at the top circumference of the solar orbit in the dr.ggola will
be obtained. This shadow is multiplied by 12 and divided by the gnomon
calculated as above. The result will be the (correct) shadow of the l2-inch
gnomon.

11.11

Vipartacchaya : Reverse shadow

Now, the reverse shadow. The method (of the reverse shadow) is applied for
the problem: When the shadow of the l2- inch gnomon is known, how to find
the time in pr
an.a-s, elapsed or yet to elapse. Now, if the 12-inch gnomon
and the shadow are (separately) squared, added together and the root found,
the result will be the ch
ay
a-karn.a (hypotenuse of the shadow) in inches
(angula-s).

Then, multiply the above-said shadow and the gnomon by trijy


a
and divide by the above-said ch
ay
a-karn.a in inches. The results got will
be the mah
a-sanku

(great gnomon) and mah


acch
ay
a (great shadow). Since
they have been derived through the shadow corresponding to the observer
(dr.gvis.aya), they will have their tips at the top circumference of the orb.
Hence, when these gnomon and the shadow are multiplied separately by
the radius of the orb and divided by trijy
a and the results obtained are,
respectively, added to the shadow and subtracted from the gnomon, they
would have been reduced to what they would have been if their tips were
at the centre of the object (bimba, i.e., Sun). Then divide the shadow by
gatija (863) and subtract the result from the shadow. Add to the gnomon
the radius of the Earth in minutes (lipt
a). The calculations up to this should
be carried out on the latitude and the co-latitude as well.
Then multiply this gnomon by the square of trijy
a and divide by the product
of the dyujy
a (radius of the diurnal circle) and lambaka (co-latitude). The
result will be the distance from the centre of the solar sphere to the horizon.
The Rsine on the diurnal circle is 21,600 in its own measure. Then apply to

550

11. Gnomonic Shadow

this the cara-jy


a (Rsine of the ascensional difference), positively or negatively
in accordance as it is Mes.a
di or Tul
adi, then convert it to arc and apply the
cara-pr
an. a-s positively or negatively, as the case may be. The result would
be the pr
an.a-s elapsed or yet to elapse. Thus (has been stated) the method
to derive the pr
an.a-s elapsed or yet to elapse through the reverse process
from the kramacch
ay
a, which in turn is obtained from karn.a and the shadow
of the 12 inch gnomon observed at a desired time.

11.12

Noon-time shadow

Now (is stated) the derivation of noon-day shadow. Now, the noon-day
shadow is the distance between a planet and the zenith (measured) in the
north-south circle, when the planet comes into contact with the north-south
circle. The angular separation between the zenith and the celestial equator
is the latitude. The separation between the Sun and the celestial equator
is the declination (apakrama). The ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala (celestial equator) is
always inclined to the south of the zenith. The Sun shifts south or north of
the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala in accordance with (northern or southern) hemisphere.
Hence, the sum or difference between the celestial latitude and the declination, depending on the hemisphere (in which the Sun lies), is the noon
shadow. Hence, the declination is the sum or difference between the noontime shadow and the latitude. Hence, the latitude is the sum or difference
(as the case may be) of the noon-time shadow and the declination. Thus, if
two among these three are known, the third can be found.

Ark
agr
a is the distance from the point of contact of the horizon and the
relevant diurnal circle to the east or the west point along the horizon. The
Sun rises at that point (the point of contact of the diurnal circle and the
horizon). Then, on account of the (effect of the) Pravaha-v
ayu, while intersecting the north-south circle, it would have shifted towards the south from
the rising point. This shift is called sankvagr

a. Now, draw a line connecting


the points of the rising and the setting (of the Sun). The distance of the
base of the gnomon from this line is the sankvagr

a. (It is to be noted that)


the tip of the gnomon would also have shifted that much. Hence it has got
the name sankvagr

a.

11.14

Some allied correlations

Now, the Rsine of the ark


agr
a is along the horizon and the Rsine of the
apakrama (declination) is along the unman.d.ala (six-o clock circle). These
two (Rsines) will be respectively equal to the distance from the east-west
cardinal points to the diurnal circle (along the respective circles). Now,
ks.iti-jy
a (Earth-sine) is the Rsine of that part of the diurnal circle intercepted between the horizon and the unman.d.ala. This could be taken as the
bhuj
a. Declination would be the kot.i. The hypotenuse is the ark
agr
a. Thus
is formed a triangle. This has been formed due to the latitude (of the place).
This triangle has been formed because the horizon and the unman.d.ala are
different circles, (which again is) due to the latitude. Hence if the desired
apakrama (Rsine of declination) is multiplied by trijy
a and divided by lambaka, the result will be ark
agr
a.
Now, there is another triangle made up of the unnata-jy
a (Rsine of the hour
angle) on the diurnal circle, the gnomon and the sankvagr

a. This is also
latitudinal. This triangle has also been formed since the unnata-jy
a has an
inclination, because of the latitude. Here, the hypotenuse is made up by the
unnata-jy
a on the diurnal circle, the gnomon is the kot.i and the distance
between the base of the unnata-jy
a and the base of the gnomon is the bhuj
a.
This bhuj
a is the sankvagr

a. This is directly north-south. Since, at the


equator, the diurnal circle is vertical, there the unnata-jy
a is also vertical.

552

11. Gnomonic Shadow

However, the inclination (of the unnata-jy


a) due to latitude is towards the
south. For this reason, the line (distance) between the base of the gnomon
and the base of the unnata-jy
a is also exactly north-south. The ark
agr
a
is also exactly north-south. Since, at that time, the direction of both are
the same, it is enough to add them both or subtract one from the other,
according to the northern or southern hemisphere. Mutual multiplication
by the kot.i is not needed here. This addition or subtraction will give the
ch
ay
a-bhuj
a, which is the distance between the east-west line and the base
of the gnomon on the horizon. This is also the distance between the planet
on the dr.nman

. d.ala and the sama-man.d.ala (prime vertical). When this is


considered as the bhuj
a and the shadow as the hypotenuse, the kot.i will be
the ch
ay
a-kot.i, which is the distance between the planet and the north-south
circle.
The above-said (ch
ay
a-kot.i) is the Rsine on the diurnal circle also. When
this is measured by its own 21,600 minute measure, the nata-pr
an.a-s will
be obtained. Since this pertains also to the 12-inch gnomon, the directions
can be determined therefrom as well. For obtaining this, the ark
agr
a is
multiplied by the hypotenuse of the shadow and divided by trijy
a. The result
is called agr
angula.

Here, sankvagr

a will always be the vis.uvacch


ay
a (the
equinoctial shadow) of the 12-inch gnomon. Hence, when the vis.uvacch
ay
a
and agr
angula

are added together or subtracted from one another, the result


will be the bhuj
a of the shadow (ch
ay
a-bhuj
a) of the 12-inch gnomon. Its
direction will be opposite to the bhuj
a of the mah
acch
ay
a (great shadow),
since the tip of the direction of the shadow has to be opposite to the direction
in which the Sun is.

11.15

Determination of the directions

Now, when the shadow, and the corresponding bhuj


a and kot.i at a desired
(place and time) for a 12-inch gnomon have been derived, construct a circle
with the shadow as radius and fix the gnomon at its centre. Mark with a dot,
the point on the circumference, where the tip of the shadow of the gnomon
falls. Touching the said point, place two rods, one being twice the length of

11.16 Sama-sanku

: Great gnomon at the prime vertical

553

the ch
ay
a-bhuj
a laying it north-south, and the other being double the length
of the ch
ay
a-kot.i, laying it east-west, in such a manner that the other ends
(of these two rods) also touch the circumference (of the circle drawn). The
directions having been known roughly, the kot.i-rod will be along the eastwest and the bhuj
a-rod along the north-south. This is another method to
ascertain the direction.

11.16

Sama-sanku

: Great gnomon at the prime


vertical

Now sama-sanku

is explained. Now, the sama-man.d.ala (prime vertical) is


a great circle which passes through the east and the west cardinal points,
and the zenith (and nadir). The ghat.ik
a-vr.tta (celestial equator) is a great
circle which passes through the east and the west cardinal points touching
the north-south circle at a place removed from the zenith towards the south
by (the extent of) the latitude (of the desired place). The descent of the
ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala from the zenith would be equal to the ascent of the north
pole from the horizon. The day on which the diurnal circle (of the Sun)
becomes identical with the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala, on that day the rising and the
setting take place at the east and west cardinal points. Midday occurs at a
place removed south from the zenith by (the extent of) the latitude. All the
diurnal circles will be inclined southwards. Hence the midday will occur to
the south, from where the rising had taken place. However, on the day when
the northern declination is smaller than the latitude, the rising and setting
will be to the north of the east and west cardinal points, and midday will be
to the south of the zenith. Since there is the meeting point (of the diurnal
circle) with the north-south circle, the planet will cross the sama-man.d.ala
(prime vertical) once between its rising and noon. In the same manner, in the
afternoon, it will cross the sama-man.d.ala once before setting. The gnomon
at that time would be sama-sanku.

(Again), at that time the shadow will


be exactly east-west.
Now, on the day when the northern declination is equal to the latitude, the
planet will meet the sama-man.d.ala at the zenith. When the northern decli-

554

11. Gnomonic Shadow

nation becomes greater than the latitude the diurnal circle does not intersect
with the sama-man.d.ala. Hence, on that day, the sama-sanku

does not occur. Also, during southern declination, the sama-man.d.ala and the diurnal
circle do not intersect and hence on that day (or during that period) also
sama-sanku

does not occur. Here, when the northern declination becomes


equal to the latitude, the planet meets the sama-man.d.ala at the zenith and
the sama-sank
is equal to trijy
a. Then, applying the same argument for a
given northern declination less than the latitude as to what the sama-sanku

would be, the sama-sanku

can be calculated. By a calculation reverse to


this, the northern declination can be obtained from the sama-sanku.

And,
from that the bhuj
a-jy
a of the planet can also be derived. This is one way
of obtaining the sama-sanku.

11.17

Samacchaya

Now is (stated) the method to derive the hypotenuse of the 12-inch gnomon
corresponding to the sama-sanku.

Here, it has been stated above that the


sama-sanku

is got by multiplying the trijy


a by the (Rsine of the) northern
declination, which is less than the latitude, and dividing the product by Rsine
of the latitude (of the place). By the proportion: If for this sama-sanku
the
hypotenuse is the trijy
a, what will be the hypotenuse for the 12-inch gnomon,
the hypotenuse for the sama-sanku
will be got. Then, the hypotenuse of the
samacch
ay
a in (terms of) angula-s

is got by multiplying trijy


a by 12 and
dividing by sama-sanku.

Here, since the mah


a-sanku
is the divisor and that
is got from the product of the trijy
a and the apakrama (Rsine of declination),
the divisor would be the product of trijy
a and apakrama, and the dividend
is the product of trijy
a and 12. Then, since trijy
a occurs both in the divisor
and in the dividend, trijy
a can be left out (in the calculation). Since the aks.a
(Rsine of latitude) is the divisor-of-the-divisor it will form a multiplier to the
dividend. Hence, (ultimately) when aks.a is multiplied by 12 and divided by
the northern declination which is less than the latitude, the result will be
the hypotenuse of the samacch
ay
a.

11.18 The Sama-sanku-related

triangles

555

Here (it might be noted that) the product of the aks.a and 12 would be equal
to the product of the equinoctial shadow and the lambaka, for the reason
that the product of icch
a and pram
an. a-phala is equal to the product of the
pram
an.a and icch
a-phala. Hence, this (product of equinoctial shadow and
the lambaka) might be divided by the apakrama to derive the hypotenuse of
the samacch
ay
a.
Now, the 12-inch gnomon shadow of a planet at noon on the equinoctial
day is its equinoctial shadow (vis.uvacch
ay
a). When the kr
anti (declination)
of the Sun is to the north, samacch
ay
a will occur only when the noon-time
shadow is less than equinoctial shadow. The difference between this noontime shadow and the equinoctial shadow is the noon-time agr
a in angula-s

(madhy
ahn
agr
angula).

This is equal to the equinoctial shadow on the day


when midday occurs at the zenith. On that day, the hypotenuse of the
midday shadow will be equal to the hypotenuse of the samacch
ay
a. On a
day when the agr
angula

is very small, the hypotenuse of the samacch


ay
a is
very much longer than the hypotenuse of the midday shadow. In proportion to the increase of the agr
angula,

the difference between the hypotenuse


of the midday shadow and the hypotenuse of the samacch
ay
a will become
lesser and lesser. Hence, inverse proportion is to be applied here. Therefore,
when the equinoctial shadow is multiplied by the midday hypotenuse and
the product divided by the agr
angula

at midday (madhy
ahn
agr
angula),

the
result will be the hypotenuse of the samacch
ay
a.

11.18

The Sama-sanku-related

triangles

Now are explained the characteristics of certain planar figures (ks.etra-vises.a)


which arise in places with latitude, on account of the latitude. Now, on
the day when the diurnal circle meets the horizon to the north of the east
and west cardinal points and similarly meets the north-south circle towards
the south of the sama-man.d.ala, a triangle can be conceived wherein the
hypotenuse is that portion of the diurnal circle between the horizon and

556

11. Gnomonic Shadow

the sama-man.d.ala, the kot.i is the sama-sanku


and the bhuj
a is the ark
agr
a.
At places where there is no latitude, since there will be no inclination of
the diurnal circle (from the vertical), the above-said triangle will not occur.
Now, consider the three, viz., (1) the distance between the east and west
cardinal points and the point of contact with the diurnal circle, occurring
on the horizon, which is the ark
agr
a; (2) the declination on the unman.d.ala
(equinoctial colure or six-o clock circle); and (3) the portion of the diurnal
circle between the horizon and the unman.d.ala, which is the ks.iti-jy
a. These
three make a triangle arising due to the latitude, with the above three taking
the place of bhuj
a, kot.i and karn.a. Then, the portion of the diurnal circle
above the unman.d.ala (may be taken as) the kot.i, the portion of apakrama
along the unman.d.ala would be the bhuj
a and sama-sanku

would be the
hypotenuse. Thus will be formed another triangle. All the above three
triangles are as if made up of the latitude, co-latitude and trijy
a. Thus, if
one of them is known, the others can be derived using trair
asika.

11.19

The ten problems

Now, let there be two equal circles, their centres being at the same place
cutting each other. It might be necessary to know as to what would be the
distance of separation between the circumferences when we proceed by a
given distance from the point of contact of their circumferences, and also
what would be the distance from the meeting point of the circumferences at
a place where their circumferences are at a given distance. Herein below is
given in detail as to which trair
asika-s have to be used to know the above,
and as an illustration of their application, the ten problems are discussed.
Now, there are five entities, viz., the sanku

(gnomon), the nata-jy


a (Rsine
hour angle), apakrama (Rsine of declination), desired a
sa
gr
a (Rsine of amplitude) and aks.a-jy
a (Rsine of latitude). When three of the above are known,
here are stated the methods to derive the other two. This can happen in ten
ways and so it is called The Ten Problems.

557

First is stated the method to derive the sanku

and the nata-jy


a when the
declination, amplitude (
asa
gr
a or digagr
a) and latitude are known. Now
conceive of a circle passing through the zenith and the planet. Such a circle
is called is..ta-digvr.tta, or drnman

. d.ala (also dinman


. d.ala). Now, the Rsine of
the distance from the meeting point of the dr.nman.d.ala and the horizon to
the east-west cardinal points along the horizon is the is..ta
sa
gr
a (the desired
sine amplitude). Now, construct a circle passing through the zenith and that
part of the horizon whose separation from the south-north svastika (cardinal
point) is equal in measure to the is..ta-
asa
gr
a. This circle is called vipartadigvr.tta. Construct another circle passing through the point of intersection
of the viparta-digvr.tta and the horizon, and also passing through the two
poles. This is called a tiryag-vr.tta, for the reason that it is at right angles
to the is..ta-digvr.tta and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta. In this circle occurs the maximum
divergence between the is..ta-digvr.tta and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta. The distance on
the horizon, between the north-south circle and the viparta-digvr.tta would
be their maximum divergence. This maximum divergence occurs on the
horizon since their point of contact is at the zenith. This would be equal
to the is..ta-
asa
gr
a. Taking this as the pram
an. a-phala, the Rsine of the arcbit on the north-south circle between the zenith and the Dhruva will be the
lambaka (co-latitude). This is the icch
a. The icch
a-phala would be the Rsine
of the distance between the Dhruva and the viparta-digvr.tta. Take this as
the kot.i, the Rsine latitude as bhuj
a; derive the karn.a (hypotenuse) by finding
the square root of the sum of the squares (of the two). The result will be the
Rsine of the distance between the horizon and the tiryag-vr.tta, with its tip
at the Dhruva. This will also be the maximum divergence between the is..tadrnman

a-man.d.ala. The poles (p


arsva) of the digvr.tta are
. d.ala and the ghat.ik
at the points of contact of the viparta-digvr.tta and the horizon. The poles
of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta are the Dhruva-s. (These) will be touching the four sides
of the is..ta-digvr.tta and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta. Since the distance between the

558

11. Gnomonic Shadow

poles on the tirvag-vr.tta is equal to the maximum divergence amongst these,


the hypotenuse derived as above would be the maximum divergence between
the is..ta-digvr.tta and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta. Here, since it is difficult to grasp the
geometrical situation when we deal with all the directions (and possibilites),
a specific direction (and situation) should be considered.
Specified below is the case, when the sanku

is in the south-west direction


in the southern hemisphere. In this case, the digvr.tta would be passing
through the horizon at the south-west and the north-east directions. And,
the viparta-digvr.tta would be passing through the south-east and northwest directions. The Rsine in the tiryag-vr.tta, which is the distance between
the north-west corner and the northern Dhruva, would serve as the divisor.
Take this divisor as the pram
an.a and the latitude which is the height of the
Dhruva as the pram
an. a-phala. Then the icch
a-phala will be obtained, as it
is the maximum divergence between the tiryag-vr.tta and the horizon on the
digvr.tta in the north-east.
Here, whatever be the extent of the altitude of the point of intersection
of the tiryag-vr.tta from the horizon on the digvr.tta on the north-east, that
much will be depression of the point of intersection of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and
digvr.tta from the zenith in the south-west on the digvr.tta. Now, it is known
that when there are two circles (with a common centre and inclined to one
another) having a common circle (tiryag-vr.tta) at right angles to them, the
two circles meet at points a quarter of the circumference (vr.tta-p
ada) away
from where they touch the tiryag-vr.tta. Hence, in the instance discussed
earlier, the divergence on the tiryag-vr.tta from the point where it meets
the digvr.tta in the north-west, to the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta, is equal to the divisor
mentioned above. Take this as the bhuj
a and as the pram
an.a. Now, at
the north-east consider the arc from the point of contact of the digvr.tta to
the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta in the south-west, which is a quarter of the circumference
(vr.tta-p
ada) along the digvr.tta, the Rsine of this (arc) is the radius. Take
this as the hypotenuse and pram
an.a. The divergence from the zenith to
the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta on the north-south circle is the latitude and this would
be the icch
a. The divergence from the zenith to the ghat.ik

Now, from the point on the dr.nman

. d.ala where it meets the tiryag-vr.tta, at a


distance of a quarter of the circumference (vr.tta-p
ada), would be the meeting
point of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta on the dinman

. d.ala. Hence, the ascent of the tiryagvr.tta from the horizon and the descent of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta from the zenith
on the digvr.tta are equal. Thus, this can be considered in two ways. There
will be no difference in the derivation of the icch
a-phala. In the derivation
of the gnomon at a desired place, the above would represent the latitude.
The kot.i of this is the distance from the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala to the horizon.
On the dinman

. d.ala, this would represent the lambana. Then the divergence


between the desired diurnal circle and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta on the north-south
circle, is the desired declination. Take this as the bhuj
a and icch
a and take
the divergence of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and the diurnal circle on the dinman

. d.ala
as the hypotenuse, and calculate the icch
a-phala. This would represent the
declination. Here, since the mere (i.e., actual) latitudes and the declination
on the north-south circle are representatives (sth
anya) of the latitudes and
the declination on the dinman

. d.ala, the differences/divergences are equal.


For the above reason, the same pram
an. a-phala which is representative of
the latitude (aks.a-sth
anya) can be used to derive the representatives of the
declination. Here, the distance from the zenith to the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta on the
dinman

. d.ala is the representative of the latitude. Again, the divergence of


the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta from the diurnal circle on the dinman

. d.ala is the representative of the declination. If these are added together or subtracted from
each other, the result will be the distance from the zenith to the diurnal
circle on the dinman

. d.ala. And, that would be the shadow at the desired


place (is..tadik-ch
ay
a). Then, the divergence between the horizon and the
ghat.ik
a-vr.tta on the dinman

. d.ala represents the lambana. The divergence of


the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and the diurnal circle on the dinman

. d.ala represents the


declination. When these have been added to or subtracted from in accordance with their hemisphere, the result would be the gnomon at the desired
place (is..ta-dikchanku).

Now, in any place, it is possible to derive the midday

560

11. Gnomonic Shadow

shadow and gnomon by the addition or subtraction of the latitude and declination or of the lambaka and declination on the north-south circle. In the
same manner, the shadow and gnomon at a desired place can be derived applying them on the digvr.tta at the desired place. Here, after the addition or
subtraction of the desired arcs, their Rsines can be derived. Or, the Rsines
themselves can be added or subtracted amongst themselves.
Now, square the representatives of the latitude and the declination, subtract
from the square of trijy
a and find the square roots; thus, the respective kot.i-s
would be obtained. Then, multiply the representatives of the latitude and
the declination by the kot.i-s of each other, add them together or subtract
one from the other and divide by the trijy
a. The result will be the shadow
at the desired place. Again, when the representatives of the lambaka (colatitude) and the declination are also cross-multiplied by the kot.i-s, and the
result divided by trijy
a, then also the result will be the shadow of the desired
place.
Then, take the actual latitude and declination, add together or subtract one
from the other, and derive the midday shadow. Multiply it by trijy
a and
divide by the divisor obtained earlier, which is the maximum divergence
of the digvr.tta at the desired place and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta, and thus obtain
the shadow at the desired place. Here, the multiplication by trijy
a and
division by the divisor can be done either before or after the addition or
subtraction of the latitude and declination, since there will be no difference
in the final result. Since in such cases, multiplication has to be done by the
latitude, co-latitude and declination, and division by the divisor, we might
consider the divisor as the pram
an. a, the actual latitude and declination, as
the pram
an.a-phala, trijy
a as icch
a, and the representatives of the latitude
and declination as icch
a-phala. In this, the place occupied by the actual
latitude and declination in a circle having the divisor as radius, will be the
same as that occupied by the representatives of the latitude and declination
in the circle which has trijy
a as radius. Therefore, if the actual latitude
and declination are squared and subtracted from the square of the divisor
and the roots calculated, the results will be the kot.i-s of the latitude and

nku
11.20 Problem one: To derive Sa

and Nata

561

declination in the circle with the divisor as radius. The same kot.i-s will be
obtained also when the dyujy
a (radius of the diurnal circle) and co-latitude
are multiplied by the divisor and divided by trijy
a. Multiply the kot.i of the
latitude by the kot.i of the declination, simiiarly multiply the declination by
the latitude and divide both by the divisor. The two results obtained shall
be added together or subtracted from one another. The result would be
the gnomon at the desired direction on the circle of which the divisor is the
radius. When this is multiplied by the trijy
a and divided by the divisor, the
gnomon in the required direction is obtained. (It is to be noted that) the
gnomon in the southern direction is obtained in the southern hemisphere
by the difference of the co-latitude and the declination, and in the northern
hemisphere, by the sum of the co-latitude and the declination.
When the declination is larger than the kot.i of the latitude, the point of
intersection of the diurnal circle with the desired digvr.tta would be below
the horizon. Therefore, when subtraction is done, there will be no gnomon
in the desired direction. When the northern declination is greater than the
latitude, the midday would be to the north of the zenith. On that day too,
there will be no gnomon in the southern direction. When, however, the
a
sa
gr
a is north, the gnomon will occur. When the sum of the arcs of the
representatives of the co-latitude and declination is greater than trijy
a, the
kot.i-jy
a thereof would be the gnomon in the northern direction. If the sum
of the jy
a-s exceeds a quarter of a circle, the result will be kot.i-jy
a.
Now, in the northern hemisphere, when the declination is greater than the
latitude, the gnomon with northern a
sa
gr
a will result. When the northern
declination is less than the latitude, in certain cases depending on the a
sa
gr
a,
the gnomon with northern a
sa
gr
a and the gnomon with the southern a
sa
gr
a
might occur on the same day. Here, by the sum of the co-latitude and
declination and by their difference, gnomons will occur with equal amounts
of southern a
sa
gr
a and the northern a
sa
gr
a, respectively.
Then again, when the desired declination is greater than the divisor, the
representative of declination will become greater than trijy
a. Since there

562

11. Gnomonic Shadow

can be no such jy
a, no gnomon will be there for that a
sa
gr
a. Thus has been
explained the methods of deriving the desired gnomon.

11.20.2

Corner shadow

Now, herein below is stated the equivalence of the above procedure (ny
ayas
amya) for the case of kon.a-sanku

(corner shadow) with that stated in the


S
urya-siddh
anta. Since here, the desired dinman

. d.ala is facing the corner,


the a
sa
gr
a is the Rsine of one-and-a-half r
asi-s. And, this will be half of the
total chord (samasta-jy
a) of three r
asi-s, for the reason that the dinman

. d.ala
touches the horizon at the middle of the interstice between the east-west
cardinal points and the north-south cardinal points. When the Rsine (ardhajy
a) and Rversine are squared, added and the root of the sum found, the
result would be the total chord. In a quadrant both the Rsine and the
Rversine are equal to trijy
a. Therefore the sum of their squares is twice the
square of trijy
a. And one-fourth of that is the square of (Rsine) of one and
a half r
asi-s. Now, when half the square of trijy
a, which is the same as the
square of above mentioned a
sa
gr
a, is taken in the circle of the co-latitude
(lamba), it will be half the square of the co-latitude. When the square of
Rsine of latitude is added to half the square of Rsine of co-latitude and the
root found, it will be the divisor here also. When the product of declination
and latitude and the product of their kot.i-s in the h
araka-circle are added
together or subtracted from one another, as the case may be, and the result
divided by the h
araka (divisor), then the corner-shadow on this h
araka-circle
will be obtained. Then again, when the product of the squares of these arcs
are added together or subtracted from one another, and the result divided
by the square of the divisor, the square of the gnomon is obtained. When the
root of this is found and is multiplied by trijy
a and divided by the divisor,
the result will be the gnomon on the trijy
a-circle.
Here, the product of the squares of the kot.i-s of the declination and latitude is
a divisor. Now, the squares of the (two) kot.i-s are the remainders obtained
by subtracting from the square of the divisor, the squares of the latitude

nku
11.20 Problem one: To derive Sa

and Nata

563

and the declination, respectively. Now, consider the square of the kot.i of the
latitude as the multiplicand and the square of the kot.i of declination as the
multiplier. Then, the square of the declination will be the difference between
the multiplier and the divisor. Now, consider the calculation: Multiply the
square of the co-latitude by the square of the declination. Divide by the
square of the divisor. Subtract the result from half the square of the colatitude. The result obtained will be equal to the product of the squares
of the Rcosine of the latitude and declination, divided by the square of the
divisor. This is the method of calculation when one takes the multiplier as
simply half of the square of the co-latitude. There is the rule:
is..tonayuktena gun.ena nighno bh.s.taghnagun.y
anvitavarjito v
a.
(Bhaskaras Ll
avat, 16)
(Multiplication can be done also by) deducting or adding a desired number to the multiplier and multiplying the multiplicand,
and adding or deducting from that, the product of the said number and the multiplicand.
As stated above, the multiplicand, which is half the square of the co-latitude,
is added to the required number represented by the square of the latitude.
Take the multiplicand as equal to the square of the divisor. Then, the
square of the declination which is the difference between the multiplier and
the divisor should be subtracted from half the square of the co-latitude which
is the multiplicand. There is a distinction here, viz., that a correction is to
be made to the square of the declination which is to be subtracted. The said
correction is as follows: Here the simple multiplicand is half the square of
the co-latitude. To this has been added, (as stated earlier), the square of the
latitude as the desired additive number. Hence that square of the latitude
should be multiplied by the square of the declination which is the difference
between the multiplier and the divisor. This, divided by the square of the
divisor, is the correction. This correction has to be subtracted from the
square of the declination, for the reason that the desired number had been
added to the multiplicand. On the other hand, in case the square of the

564

11. Gnomonic Shadow

declination had been deducted from half the square of the co-latitude, that
correction should have been added. The square root of the remainder (after
the abovesaid deduction) is one part of the gnomon. The other part is got
by multiplying the latitude and the declination and dividing the result by
the root of the divisor, which is the square mentioned above. When this
result is squared, it will be the above-mentioned correction to the square of
the declination. Then, these (two) parts of the gnomon should respectively
be multiplied by the trijy
a and divided by the divisor.
Now, substract the square of ark
agr
a from the square of trijy
a. Multiply the
remainder by the square of the co-latitude and divide by the square of trijy
a.
The result obtained would be equal to half the square of the co-latitude minus
the square of the declination. Multiply this by the square of the trijy
a and
divide by the square of the divisor. Since this result has to be converted
to the trijy
a-vr.tta (circle with trijy
a as the radius), the multiplication and
division by the square of the trijy
a can be dropped. Now, from half the
square of trijy
a, subtract the square of the ark
agr
a; multiply the remainder
by the square of co-latitude and divide by the square of the divisor; the result
will be on the trijy
a-circle. In the same manner, when the declination has
to be multiplied by the latitude, if instead the ark
agr
a is multiplied and the
product is multiplied by the co-latitude and divided by the divisor, the result
will be a part of the gnomon on the trijy
a-circle, the reason being that the
relation between trijy
a and co-latitude is the same as that between ark
agr
a
and declination. Then, the (two) parts of the gnomon have to be added
or subtracted, depending on whether the hemisphere is south or north; the
results would be the southern and northern corner-gnomons.
Here, in place of latitude and co-latitude, the equinoctial shadow and 12inch gnomon can be used. There, the only distinction is that the square of
the equinoctial shadow is added to half the square of 12, being 72, to get
the square of the divisor. Thus has been explained the method of deriving
the desired gnomon under problem one. It has also been indicated that
there are the above-mentioned easier methods for the case of the kon.a-sanku

(corner-shadow).

Derivation of Nata-jya (Rsine hour ang1e)

Now, nata-jy
a (Rsine of hour angle) has to be obtained. Conceive of the
maximum divergence between the desired dinman

. d.ala and the north-south


circle as the Rcosine of the desired a
sa
gr
a (is..ta
sa
gr
a-kot.i). A consideration
of what it would be on the tip of the shadow, would lead to the ch

a-kot.i.
This ch
ay
a-kot.i is the nata-jy
a. The distinction is that, in order to convert
it in terms of its own minutes of arc in the diurnal circle, the above should
be multiplied by trijy
a and divided by dyujy

a
sa
gr

would all be numerically the same. Hence, when a factor of one of these is
used to divide the product of the other two, the second factor would be got.
This fact might be kept in mind in the present problem, as also in all the
other problems. Thus ends problem one.

Problem two: Sa

11.21.1

Derivation of the gnomon

Now, the second problem. Here, using the nata-jy


a, a
sa
gr
a and aks.a, the
other two, viz., sanku

and kr
anti (or apakrama) are to be derived. The
geometrical construction (ks.etra-kalpana) here is as follows: Construct a
circle touching the two poles and the planet. This is called nata-vr.tta. The
maximum divergence between the nata-vr.tta and the north-south circle is
on the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala. Construct another great circle passing through the
zenith and the point where the nata-vr.tta meets the horizon. This circle
is called nata-sama-man. d.ala. Mark the point on the horizon a quarter of
the circumference away along the horizon from the point where the natasama-man.d.ala and the horizon meet each other. Construct another circle
passing through this point and the zenith. This circle is called nata-dr.kks.epavr.tta. It is on this circle that the maximum divergence between the natavr.tta and the nata-sama-man. d.ala occurs. It is again on this circle that the
maximum divergence between the nata-vr.tta and the horizon occurs. The
above-said two maximum divergences are called, respectively, svadesa-nata

566

11. Gnomonic Shadow

and svadesa-nata-kot. i. Now, construct the is..ta-digvr.tta and vyasta-digvr.tta


as instructed earlier (in connection with problem one). Now, the extent by
which the nata-vr.tta is below the zenith on the nata-dr.kks.epa-man.d.ala, to
that extent the pole of the nata-man.d.ala would be higher than the horizon
on the same vr.tta (nata-dr.kks.epa-man.d.ala). The point of intersection of the
nata-dr.kks.epa-man.d.ala and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta is also the pole of the natavr.tta.
Now, construct another circle passing through the point of intersection of the
horizon and the vyasta-digvr.tta and the pole of the nata-vr.tta on the natadr.kks.epa-man.d.ala. This will be a tiryag-vr.tta which is perpendicular (?)
both to the nata-vr.tta and is..ta-digvr.tta. Note how much this tiryag-vr.tta
is above the horizon on the is..ta-digvr.tta; to that extent will the point of
intersection of the digvr.tta and the nata-vr.tta be lower from the zenith. The
distance between the zenith and the nata-vr.tta on the digvr.tta will be the
shadow. Its kot.i will be the gnomon.
Now, moving from the northern Dhruva to the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta on the northsouth circle, the divergence between the nata-vr.tta and the north-south circle
is the nata-jy
a. The co-latitude thereof is the distance between the Dhruva
and the zenith. The distance from this to the nata-vr.tta will be the svadesanata. Put one end of this at the point of intersection of the nata-vr.tta and the
svadesa-nata-vr.tta. The kot.i of this svadesa-nata-jy
a would be the distance
from this point to the horizon. Now, presume that the is..ta
sa
gr
a meets the
horizon a little to the south of the east cardinal point. In that, the gnomon
shall also be in the same way. In this situation, the nata-vr.tta will meet the
horizon a little to the west of the north svastika and a little to the east of
the south svastika. The svadesa-nata-vr.tta will then touch the horizon that
much to the north from the east svastika and that much south from the west
svastika.
The vidin-man

. d.ala (vidig-vr.tta) will meet the horizon at a point west of


the south svastika by a length equal to the is..ta
sa
gr
a. From that point, the
tiryag-vr.tta will begin to rise. When it reaches the svadesa-nata-vr.tta, it

nku
11.21 Problem two: Sa

and Apakrama

567

would touch the pole (of the nata-vr.tta) which is above the horizon by the
extent of Rsine of svadesa-nata. The distance between the pole of the natavr.tta and the horizon is the divisor here. When this tiryag-vr.tta reaches
the digvr.tta, it would have traversed one quadrant from its point of contact
with the horizon. Hence, in this digvr.tta, the tiryag-vr.tta and the horizon
would have their maximum divergence. And that (divergence) is equal to the
shadow. Its kot.i, which is equal to the gnomon, would be the distance from
the zenith on the digvr.tta to the point of intersection of the digvr.tta and the
tiryag-vr.tta. This will be the maximum divergence between the tiryag-vr.tta
and the vidig-vr.tta. When the difference between the nata-vr.tta and the
horizon becomes equal to svadesa-nata-kot. i, its hypotenuse is trijy
a. This
being so, by applying the rule of three to find what it will be for dhruvonnati,
we will obtain the distance between the north pole and the horizon on the
nata-vr.tta. Now, the maximum difference between the nata-vr.tta and the
north-south circle is the nata-jy
a. Then, consider the proportion: When so
much is the divergence in the north-south circle for the dhruva-ks.itij
antar
alajy
a on the nata-vr.tta, what will be the divergence in the north-south circle
for the dhruva-ks.itij
antar
ala-jy
a; thus the divergence between the nata-vr.tta
and the north-south circle on the horizon would be obtained. The same will
be the divergence of the point of intersection of the nata-dr.kks.epa and the
horizon, to the south of the western svastika. Subtract this from the kot.i of
a
sa
gr
a. The remainder will be the divergence of the svadesa-nata-vr.tta and
the vidig-vr.tta on the horizon.
Here, when Rsines are added or subtracted, they should mutually be multiplied by their kot.i-s and the results added or subtracted and then divided
by trijy
a. [According to the above rule, the following is to be done]: The
nata-jy
a is multiplied by the latitude and divided by the svadesa-nata-kot. i.
The square of this is subtracted from the square of trijy
a and the square root
found. This root is multiplied, respectively, by a
sa
gr
a and a
sa
gr
a-kot. i. Find
the difference between the products found, if the gnomon is in the south,
and add them if the gnomon is in the north. If this is divided by trijy
a, the
result would be the divergence between the svadesa-nata-vr.tta and the vidigvr.tta, on the horizon. Now if the a
sa
gr
a is to the north in the forenoon, the

568

11. Gnomonic Shadow

point of contact of the vidig-vr.tta and the horizon would be away from the
north svastika towards the west at a distance equal to the a
sa
gr
a. From this
point the trijy
a-vr.tta begins to rise. And, from this point, the distance up
to the west svastika is the kot.i of the a
sa
gr
a. Now, the meeting point of the
svadesa-n
ata-vr.tta and the horizon is to the south of the west svastika; therefore, add this distance to the kot.i of a
sa
gr
a. The result will be the distance
from the vidig-vr.tta to the svadesa-nata-vr.tta. This would be the maximum
divergence between the digvr.tta and the svadesa-nata-vr.tta on the horizon.
Now, when one proceeds on the svadesa-nata-vr.tta from the zenith up to
the pole of the nata-vr.tta (nata-vr.tta-p
arsva), the divergence would be equal
to the svadesa-nata-kot. i. Derive the vidig-vr.tt
antara for this, it being the
vidig-vr.tt
antara from the pole (nata-p
arsva) of the nata-vr.tta . Square this.
Square also the svadesa-nata-jy
a, it being the altitude (nata-p
arsvonnati)
of the pole of the nata-vr.tta. Add the two, and find the root. The result
will be the divergence between the pole of the nata-vr.tta and the horizon
on the tiryag-vr.tta. Take this as the pram
an.a. The pram
an. a-phala-s are the
altitude of the pole of the nata-vr.tta from the horizon and the divergence
between the pole of the nata-vr.tta and the vidig-vr.tta. For this pram

the above two are the shadow and gnomon. Trijy

a-kot.i. By squaring the shadow and
the trijy
a, subtracting them from one another and finding the root thereof,
the gnomon is got.

11.23.2

Derivation of Aks.a (latitude)

The following is the geometrical construction (ks.etra-kalpana) for the derivation of aks.a. Construct a (smaller) north-south circle parallel to the northsouth circle at a distance equal to the ch
ay
a-kot.i. This will be like the
diurnal circle with respect to the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala. In relation to the (nor-

570

11. Gnomonic Shadow

mal) north-south circle, this (new circle) would be the one on which the
true planet is situated. Construct another circle touching the planet and
the east-west svastika-s. In this situation, the distance from the planet to
the north-south circle is the ch
ay
a-kot.i. The distance from the planet to the
east-west-svastika is the kot.i of the ch
ay
a-kot.i. This latter kot.i would be the
radius of the kot.i-circle conceived here. The ch
ay
a-bhuj
a is the Rsine in this
kot.i-radius (circle). And, that would be the distance from the planet to the
sama-man.d.ala. The kot.i of this (ch
ay
a-bhuj
a) is the gnomon.
Now, the distance between the planet to the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta is the declination.
The kot.i of this (declination) will be square root of the difference between
the squares of the ch
ay
a-kot.i and dyujy
a. This will be the interstice between
the planet and the unman.d.ala on this kot.i-circle. Now, multiply the ch
ay
abhuj
a by the kot.i of apakrama; add them or find the difference between them
as the case may be. Divide the result by the radius of the kot.i-circle, which
is nothing but the square root of the difference of the squares of trijy
a and
ch
ay
a-kot.i. The result will be the aks.a on this kot.i-circle. Now, multiply
this aks.a by trijy
a and divide by the radius of the kot.i-circle. The result will
be the latitude of the place (svadesa-aks. a). Here, if the kr
anti (declination)
and a
sa
gr
a are in opposite directions, the two should be added, and if in the
same direction, they are to be subtracted from each other. Again, there will
be addition if the planet is between the unman.d.ala and the horizon. (It is
also to be noted that) the root of the difference of the squares of the ch
ay
a
and ch
ay
a-kot.i is the ch
ay
a-b
ahu.
Thus the four problems involving sanku
(gnomon) have been discussed.

Problem five: Nata and Kranti

Now is discussed the derivation of the nata (hour angle) and kr


anti (declination) (when the other three are known).
Construct a circle with its radius as the Rsine of the arc extending from the
east or west svastika to the planet. The Rsine on this circle is the ch

bhuj
a. It was stated earlier that chay
a-bhuj
a is the sum or difference of
the aks.a on the kot.i-circle and the declination on the trijy
a-vr.tta. Hence,
when the aks.a on the kot.i-circle and the ch
ay
a-bhuja are added together
or mutually subtracted, the result will be declination on the trijy
a-circle.
Now, since the co-latitude and latitude have to be converted to the kot.icircle, multiplication by the radius of the kot.i-circle and division by trijy
a are
needed. By the co-latitude and latitude so obtained, multiply, respectively,
the ch
ay
a-bhuj
a and sanku.

Add or subtract the results as the case may


be and divide by the radius of the kot.i-circle. The result will be the desired
declination. Here, multiplication or division by the kot.i-circle is not required.
Now, when simply the co-latitude and latitude are multiplied, respectively,
by the ch
ay
a-bhuj
a and sanku,

and the results added or subtracted as the


case may be and divided by trijy
a, the result will be the desired apakrama
(declination). The kot.i of this would be is..ta-dyujy
a. Divide with this the
product of ch
ay
a-kot.i and trijy
a. The result will be nata-jy
a (Rsine of hour
angle).

11.25

sagra
Problem six: Nata and A

Now are derived nata and a


sa
gr
a (from the other three). For this, first, the
ch
ay
a-b
ahu is obtained. And that is got by the addition or subtraction of
ark
agr
a and sankvagr

a. Now, ark
agr
a is the divergence between the east and
west svastika-s and the rising and setting points of the Sun on the horizon.
And, sankvagr

a is the distance by which the planet has moved south at the


desired time, in accordance with the slant of the diurnal circle from the
place of its rising. Since it moves only to the south it (i.e., sankvagr

a) is
said to be ever to the south (nitya-daks.in.a). Then (the planet) will rise in
the northern hemisphere towards the north of the east-west svastika. Hence,
on that day the ark
agr
a is northern, and in the southern hemisphere the
ark
agr
a is southern. Hence, the sum of the ark
agr
a and the sankvagr

a in
case both are in the same direction, or their difference if they are in opposite
directions, will give the distance of the planet from the sama-man.d.ala. And,
that is the ch
ay
a-bhuj
a.

572

11. Gnomonic Shadow

Now, here the ark


agr
a and declination bear the relationship obtaining between trijy
a and lambaka, and the sanku
and sankvagr

a bear the relationship


between lambaka and aks.a. Hence, if the declination is multiplied by trijy
a
and the sanku

is multiplied by aks.a and added to or subtracted from, in


accordance with the hemisphere in which they are, and divided by the lambaka, the result will be ch
ay
a-bhuj
a. When this ch
ay
a-bhuj
a is multiplied
by trijy
a and divided by the ch
ay
a, the result will be a
sa
gr
a. And, when
the product of ch
ay
a and a
sa
gr
a-kot. i is divided by dyujy
a the result will be
nata-jy
a.

11.26

Problem seven: Nata and Aks.a

Next is derived nata and aks.a (when the other three are known). Here, the
nata-jy
a is to be derived in the manner explained above. Now, the root of
the difference between the squares of ch
ay
a-kot.i and dyujy
a is the Rsine of
the distance of separation between the planet and the unman.d.ala on the
diurnal circle. This Rsine which rises from the horizon is termed unnata-jy
a.
The Rsine on that part of the diurnal circle situated between the horizon
and the unman.d.ala is called ks.itija-jy
a (ks.iti-jy
a). Since, however, in the
southern hemisphere the unman.d.ala is below the horizon, the unnata-jy
aplus-ks.itija-jy
a is the root of the difference between the squares of ch
ay
a-kot.i
and dyujy
a. In the northern hemisphere however, it would be equal to the
unnata-jy
a-minus-ks.itija-jy
a.
Now, the unnata-jy
a is the hypotenuse in the triangle whose sides are sanku

and sankvagr

a. The ks.itija-jy
a is the bhuj
a of a triangle which is similar to
this triangle. In the southern hemisphere, this is the sum of the bhuj
a and
the hypotenuse of two triangles. (Again), in the southern hemisphere, the
ch
ay
a-bhuj
a is the sum of ark
agr
a and sankvagr

a. Add this ch
ay
a-bhuj
a to
the unnata-jy
a to which ks.iti-jy
a has been added. This will then be the sum
of the bhuj
a and karn.a of two triangles. In the northern hemisphere, however,
it would be the difference between the bhuj
a and karn.a. This would, again

sa
11.27 Problem eight: Apakrama and A
gr
a

573

be the sum of the ch


ay
a-bhuj
a and the root of the sum of the squares of the
ch
ay
a-kot.i and dyujy
a.
Here, there is a triangle with sanku,

sankvagr

a and unnata-jy
a as its three
sides. There is another triangle with apakrama, ks.iti-jy
a and ark
agr
a as its
sides. In the southern hemisphere there will be, the addition of the bhuj
a-s
and of the karn.a-s in these two triangles. In the northern hemisphere, however, there will be the subtraction of the sum of the two bhuj
a-s from the sum
of the two karn.a-s. Since these two triangles are similar (tulya-svabh
ava),
even when addition or subtraction is made, it will be as if the sum and difference of the bhuj
a and karn.a has been done in the same triangle. By its
nature, the sum of the sanku
and apakrama will be the kot.i of the triangle.
Therefore, in the southern hemisphere, divide the square of the sum of this
sanku
and apakrama by the sum of the bhuj
a and karn.a. The result will be
their difference. In the northern hemisphere, however, divide by the difference between the bhuj
a and karn.a. The result will be their sum. When the
sum and difference of the bhuj
a and karn.a are found thus, half their sum
will be the karn.a, and half their difference will be bhuj
a. Now, the bhuj
a is
multiplied by trijy
a and divided by the karn.a. The result will be the aks.a,
since the above said two triangles are similar to the triangle formed by the
lamba, aks.a and trijy
a.

11.27

sagra
Problem eight: Apakrama and A

Next is stated the derivation of the apakrama and a


sa
gr
a. Now, the maximum divergence between the nata-vr.tta and the horizon is the svadesa-natakot.i. Take this as the pram
an. a. The divergence between the svadesa-natavr.tta and the horizon on the nata-vr.tta, is a quarter of the circumference
(90 degrees). The jy
a thereof is the radius, and is the pram
an.a-phala. The
sanku

is the icch
a. The distance between the planet and the horizon on
the nata-vr.tta will be the icch
a-phala. For these pram
an. a-phala-s, when the
altitude of Dhruva is the icch
a, there will be the interstice between Dhruva
and the horizon on the nata-vr.tta.

574

11. Gnomonic Shadow

Now, when the planet is north of the point of intersection of the svadesanata-vr.tta and the nata-vr.tta, then subtract from one another the arcs of
the (Rsines of the) icch
a and phala. The result will be the arc between the
north pole and the planet, on the nata-vr.tta. When, however, the planet is
to the south of the abovesaid point of intersection, add together the arcs of
the Rsines of the icch
a and phal
a. The result will be the arc between the
south pole and the planet on the nata-vr.tta. The Rsine of this is the dyujy
a.
The kot.i thereof is the apakrama. The a
sa
gr
a can be derived as discussed
before.

11.28

Problem nine: Kranti and Aks.a

Next, are kr
anti (declination) and aks.a (latitude). First, derive the dyujy
a
and (using that) derive the kr
anti. The aks.a shall be derived by one of the
(two) methods described earlier (in the fourth and the seventh problems).

11.29

sagra and Aks.a


Problem ten: A

Next are, derived digagr


a and aks.a. Multiply dyujy
a and nata-jy
a or, ch
ay
akot.i and trijy
a. Either of the two shall be divided by the ch
ay
a. The result of
the division would be a
sa
gr
a-kot. i. The aks.a can be derived as stated earlier.
Thus have been stated the answers for all the ten problems.

11.30

Is..ta-dik-chaya : Another method

Now is stated, a method for the derivation of the is..tadik-ch


ay
a (shadow in
any desired direction). Now, consider the shadow of a l2-inch gnomon when
the planet is at the point of intersection of the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and the
is..ta-dinman

. d.ala (i.e., the vertical passing through the planet at the desired
location). When the planet is at the equinox, the ch
ay
a-bhuj
a of gnomonic
shadow will be equal to the equinoctial shadow. The a
sa
gr
a on the trijy
a
circle will be the ch
ay
a-bhuj
a in the circle whose diameter is the shadow

11.31 K
ala-lagna, Udaya-lagna and Madhya-lagna

575

of the l2-inch gnomon. In order to find the ch


ay
a-kot.i when it (i.e., the
a
sa
gr
a) becomes equal to the equinoctial shadow, multiply a
sa
gr
a-kot. i and
equinoctial shadow and divide by the a
sa
gr
a. The result will be the ch
ay
akot.i. Square this and the equinoctial shadow, add and find the root. The
result will be the shadow of the 12 inch gnomon when the planet is on the
ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala. If this shadow is converted to (the shadow in) the trijy
avr.tta, the result will be the distance between (the zenith and) the ghat.ik
aman.d.ala in the is..ta-dinman

. d.ala. This can be conceived to be representive


of the latitude (aks.a-sth
anya). Here, the distance between the zenith and
the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala on the north-south circle is the latitude. The distance
on the same between the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and the diurnal circle is the declination. Hence the latitude and the representative of latitude will be the
pram
an.a and pram
an.a-phala and the icch
a will be the declination. For that
icch
a, the icch
a-phala would be the distance from the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala to
the diurnal circle on the is..ta-digvr.tta. This will be the representative of
the declination (apakrama-sth
anya). Then, following the method by which
the noon-day shadow is computed, when the arcs of the representatives of
the latitude and the declination are added together or subtracted from each
other and the Rsine thereof is found, the result will be the shadow in the
desired direction.

11.31

K
ala-lagna, Udaya-lagna and Madhya-lagna

Now is stated the method for deriving the k


ala-lagna (time elapsed since the
rise of the first point of Aries) and udaya-lagna (the orient ecliptic point).
Here, the ecliptic, i.e., the great circle which is the central circle of the
zodiac (r
asi-cakra), which revolves westwards on account of the Pravahav
ayu, touches the horizon at the desired time, (at two points) either towards
the north or south of the east and west svastika-s. Lagna is a point of
contact of the ecliptic and the horizon. Conceive of a circle touching the two
lagna-s and the zenith. This is called lagna-sama-man. d.ala. Now, conceive of
another circle touching the zenith and the points on the horizon, which are as
much removed from the north-south svastika-s as the lagna-sama-man.d.ala is
removed from the east-west svastika-s. This circle is termed dr.kks.epa-vr.tta .

576

11. Gnomonic Shadow

This circle and the lagna-sama-man.d.ala will be at right angles (viparta-dik).


These two circles and the horizon divide the celestial sphere into octants.
Here, in the centre would be situated the apakrama-vr.tta. Here, the r
asi-k
u.ta
(the converging points of the sign segments of the ecliptic), which is the pole
of the ecliptic, will be raised with respect to the horizon on the dr.kks.epavr.tta by the same amount by which the point of contact of the ecliptic
and the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta is depressed from the zenith, which also represents
the maximum divergence between the lagna-sama-man. d.ala and the ecliptic.
This is because the zenith is removed by a quarter of the circle (from the
horizon).
Now, that point on the ecliptic which is removed farthest from the ghat.ik
aman.d.ala is called ayan
anta. Here, that circle which passes through the
farthest points of the ecliptic and the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala will pass through the
four poles of the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala and the ecliptic. Hence, the two interstices between the poles will be contained in this circle passing through the
ayan
anta-s.
Let it be conceived that the observer is on the equator, and the vernal
equinox is at the zenith. Then the north solstice would be removed to the
north from the eastern svastika by the measure of the maximum declination
on the equatorial horizon, and the south solstice would be that much removed
from the western svastika towards the south. The two r
asi-k
u.ta-s would be
on the horizon, one to the east of the south-svastika, and the other to the
west of the north-svastika. When the north solstice would rise from the
horizon, on account of the Pravaha-v
ayu, the south r
asi-k
u.t a will also rise.
In the same manner, they reach the north-south circle and the horizon in the
west at the same instant. Thus the rising and setting of the the southern
ayan
anta (winter solstice) and the northern r
asi-k
u.ta occur at the same
moment. Thus, the altitude of the r
asi-k
u.ta-s is in exact accordance with
the altitude of the solstices. Hence the Rsine altitude of the solstice is equal
to the Rsine altitude of the r
asi-k
u.ta-s.
Now, the gnomon for the r
asi-k
u.ta has to be derived. That will be the altitude of the r
asi-k
u.ta from the horizon. Now, since the r
asi-k
u.ta is removed

11.31 K
ala-lagna, Udaya-lagna and Madhya-lagna

577

from the pole as much as the maximum declination, the maximum declination would be equal to the (radius of the) diurnal circle of the r
asi-k
u.ta.
Therefore multiply the Rsine altitude of the solstice (ayan
antonnata-jy
a)
with the maximum declination and divide by trijy
a. The result would be
the gnomon of the r
asi-k
u.ta at the equator. At places with latitude, since
it (i.e., the equator) would be inclined, this should be multiplied by the colatitude and divided by trijy
a and the result should be added to the portion
of the gnomon (derived) above corresponding to the interstice between the
horizon and the hour circle (unman.d.ala), in the case of the gnomon pertaining to the northern r
asi-k
u.ta, and subtracted from the gnomon pertaining
to the southern r
asi-k
u.ta. The result will be the gnomon of the r
asi-k
u.ta.
Now, conceive of a circle touching the r
asi-k
u.ta-s and the zenith. That is
clearly the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta. On this circle, the meeting point with the ecliptic
would be located below the zenith by the same amount by which the gnomon
is lower than the r
asi-k
u.ta. That will be the dr.kks.epa. Hence, it follows
that the gnomon of the r
asi-k
u.t a will itself be the dr.kks.epa. Now, arises
the proportion: If the latitude is the gnomon for the distance between the
horizon and the hour circle (unman.d.ala) when (a point) moves from eastwest svastika to the pole on the hour circle (unman.d.ala), then what will be
the gnomon for the antya-dyujy
a when it moves by the distance between
the diurnal circle and the r
asi-k
u.ta. The result will be the portion of the
gnomon for the interstice between the equator and the hour circle at the
desired place.
Then the Rsine of 90 degrees-minus-k
ala-lagna will be equal to the Rsine of
the altitude (unnata-jy
a) of the r
asi-k
u.ta from the hour circle. If this Rsine
is converted to the required diurnal circle and from it is subtracted the
correction to the extent of the lamba due to the inclination of the latitude,
the result will be the gnomon of the r
asi-k
u.ta. K
ala-lagna with respect to the
equinox (gol
adi) when subtracted from 90 degrees will be the k
ala-lagna with
respect to the solstice (ayan
adi). Hence it is enough to take the Rsine of the
k
ala-lagna-kot.i. The kot.i of dr.kks.epa-jy
a thus derived, will be the greatest
distance between the horizon and the ecliptic. Take this as the pram
an.a, and

578

11. Gnomonic Shadow

trijy
a as the pram
an.a-phala. Now, the gnomon of the planet at the required
time is the distance between the horizon and the point on the ecliptic where
the planet is. That will be the icch
a-r
asi. The icch
a-phala would be the
interstice between the horizon and the planet along the ecliptic. Convert
it into arc and add or subtract the arc (i.e., the longitude) of the planet;
the result would be the portion of the ecliptic between the equinox and the
point of contact with the horizon. That will be the lagna at the time of the
setting of the planet (asta-lagna) in the west, and in the east, it will be the
time of the rising of the planet (udaya-lagna).
Next, the method to derive the gnomon at this place. Now the nata (hour
angle) is the interstice, on the diurnal circle, between the planet and the
north-south circle. Now, all diurnal circles would have revolved once during
a day and night. In a day-night, the number of pr
an.a-s would be equal to
21,600 (cakra-kal
a-tulya) in number. Hence, when all the diurnal circles are
conceived as divided into pr
an.a-s, they would be 21,600 in number. Hence,
the nata-pr
an. a-s are only part of the minutes in the diurnal circle. Therefore,
the Rsine of 90 degrees less the Rversine of the hour angle, would be equal
to the Rsine of the portion of the diurnal circle in the interstice between the
planet and the hour-circle. If to this, the correction due to the cara-jy
a is
applied, the result will be the Rsine of the altitude from the horizon (unnatajy
a). In order to convert it to the circle with trijy
a as radius, it should be
multiplied by dyujy
a, and to correct for the inclination on account of the
latitude, it should be multiplied by the co-latitude (lambaka) and divided by
the square of trijy
a. The result got would be the distance on the required
dinman

. d.ala (vertical circle), from the horizon to the place in the diurnal
circle where the planet is situated. This will be the (required) gnomon.
Since the point where the Sun is on the diurnal circle would touch the ecliptic,
the distance between the horizon and that point on the ecliptic would be
this very same gnomon. Hence, this gnomon will be the icch
a. Hence,
that portion of the ecliptic which is between the planet and the horizon of
which the gnomon is the icch
a, even during night time, the gnomon derived
as above would be the distance between the specified point on the ecliptic

11.32 K
ala-lagna corresponding to sunrise

579

and the horizon. Hence, the gnomon would be the icch


a-r
asi during night
time also. Here, the difference between half the measure of the night and
the portion of the night which has either gone (gata) or is yet to go (es.ya),
would be the nata-pr
an.a-s (pr
an.a-s of the hour angle). This is for the reason
that this is the portion of the diurnal circle corresponding to the difference
between the planet and the north-south circle below. When the Rversine of
this is subtracted from trijy
a, the result will be the Rsine of that portion of
the diurnal circle between the planet and the hour circle. To convert this to
the difference between the horizon and the planet, subtract from it the cara
in the northern hemisphere, and add the cara in the southern hemisphere.
Then derive the gnomon as before. Then multiply that by trijy
a and divide
by the dr.kks.epa-kot.i. The result will be the Rsine of the interstice between
the planet and the horizon on the ecliptic. Find the arc of this Rsine and
add to the (longitude of the) planet in the eastern hemisphere and subtract
from the planet if the gnomon is directed below. The result will be the lagna
at the time of rising. In the western hemisphere if this is applied to the
planet in the reverse order, the lagna at setting would be obtained. The
lagna exactly at the middle of the rising and setting is the dr.kks.epa-lagna.
And, that will fall at the point of intersection of the dr.kks.epa circle with the
ecliptic.
Now, madhya-lagna is the point of intersection of the north-south circle and
the ecliptic. This can be obtained using the method of fifteen questions
(pa
ncadasa-prasna-ny
aya) dealt with earlier. The madhya-k
ala is the point
of intersection of the north-south circle and the celestial equator (ghat.ik
aman.d.ala). This can be obtained from the method of madhya-lagna.

11.32

K
ala-lagna corresponding to sunrise

K
ala-lagna is madhya-k
ala plus three r
asi-s (90 degrees), which will fall at the
point where the celestial equator meets the eastern svastika. The method
to derive this is stated now. If the s
ayana Sun is in the first quadrant,
then derive its bhuj
a-pr
an.a-s as stated earlier. Construct a transverse circle
(tiryag-vr.tta) passing through the Sun on the ecliptic and the two poles (of

580

11. Gnomonic Shadow

the equator). Note the point where it touches the celestial equator. The
distance from that point to the point of equinox on the celestial equator
would be the measure of the bhuj
a-pr
an.a-s. If the Sun is supposed to be at
the horizon, then the meeting point of the celestial equator and the tiryagvr.tta will be a little below the eastern svastika, with the distance being
equal to the cara. Hence when the required cara is subtracted from the
bhuj
a-pr
an.a, the result will be the distance from the eastern svastika to the
equinox on the celestial equator. This will be the k
ala-lagna when the s
ayana
Sun is in the first quadrant.
Similarly, in the second quadrant, when the Sun rises calculate the bhuj
apr
an.a-s of the Sun. Construct also the transverse circle (tiryag-vr.tta) as
before. Here too, as stated earlier, the distance between this transverse
circle and the equinox to the north would be the bhuj
a-pr
an.a-s. Here, the
bhuj
a-pr
an.a-s would occur below the horizon and the intersection with the
transverse circle would occur below the eastern svastika. Therefore, add
the cara to the bhuj
a-pr
an.as-s and subtract (the sum) from 6 r
asi-s (180
degrees). The remainder would be the difference from the eastern svastika
to the equinox in the east, on the celestial equator. That will be the k
alalagna at the time of sunrise.
In the third quadrant, the sunrise is to the south of the eastern svastika.
There, the horizon would be above the hour circle and hence the transverse
circle constructed would be above the eastern svastika. Therefore, to reach
upto the svastika, the pr
an.a-s of cara have to be added to the bhuj
a-pr
an.a-s.
And, that has its beginning in the equinox to the north. Hence six r
asi-s
(180 degrees) are to be added. The result will be the k
ala-lagna.
In the fourth quadrant also, as in the second quadrant, there is a portion
of arc yet to be traversed (es.ya), the bhuj
a-pr
an.a-s are below the horizon.
Since the transverse circle is above the eastern svastika, to reach up to the
horizon, the pr
an.a-s of cara are to be subtracted from the bhuj
a-pr
an.a-s.
Thus the subtraction has to be done from all the twelve r
asi-s, since it is yet
to be traversed. This is the k
ala-lagna for sunrise. In this manner, the k
ala-

11.33 Madhya-lagn
anayana

581

lagna for all the twelve r


asi-s have to be calculated and the earlier ones have
to be subtracted from the subsequent ones, successively. The differences
would be, in order, the r
asi-pram
an. a-s (appropriate time measures for the
r
asi-s). Now, the twelve r
asi-s are formed by dividing the ecliptic equally,
commencing from equinox in the east. When, as a result of the motion of
the Pravaha-v
ayu, when the forefront of a r
asi meets the horizon, that r
asi
is said to commence. When its hind end leaves the horizon, that r
asi is said
to end. The time interval between these two events are said to be the time
asi-s and time measure
measure of the r
asi-pr
an.a-s. Thus, incidentally, the r
of r
asi-s have also been stated.

11.33

Madhya-lagnanayana: Calculating the meridian ecliptic point

In this manner, calculate the k


ala-lagna for (the required) sunrise and add
to it the time elapsed (since sunrise) in terms of pr
an.a-s. That will be the
k
ala-lagna of the desired time. When three r
asi-s are subtracted from it the
result will be the point of contact of the celestial equator and the north-south
circle. This would be the madhya-k
ala.
The kot.i of this would be that portion of the celestial equator lying between
the equinox and the east-west cardinal points. Calculate the Rsine declination (apakrama-jy
a) corresponding to this kot.i. That will be the distance
between the celestial equator and the ecliptic on the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta which
touches the east and west cardinal points. Then derive the kot.i-jy
a and
dyujy
a for this and obtain the bhuj

an.a-s. That will be the kot.i of the
interstice on the ecliptic between the equinox and the point of intersection
of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and ecliptic mentioned above. Then, consider the portion of the ecliptic contained in the interstice between the equinox and the
north-south circle. This will be madhya-bhuj
a. The rest (of the work) is as
per the different quadrants, as has already been stated for k
ala-lagna. The
only distinction here is that the ecliptic is considered as the celestial equator

582

11. Gnomonic Shadow

and the celestial equator is considered as the ecliptic. Thus has been stated
the method of deriving the madhya-lagna.

11.34

Dr.kks.epa-jy
a and Kot.i

Now is stated the method for deriving dr.kks.epa-jy


a using the udaya-lagna
and madhya-lagna. First conceive the ecliptic and dr.kks.epa-man.d.ala as directed above. Then, that point of the ecliptic which meets the horizon to
the east of the north-south circle is called udaya-lagna (rising or orient ecliptic point), and that point which touches (the horizon) at the west is called
asta-lagna (setting or occident ecliptic point). That point (of the ecliptic)
which touches the north-south circle is called madhya-lagna. The method to
ascertain these has been stated earlier.
Now, udaya-jy
a would be the distance from the east and west svastika-s of
the point of contact of the ecliptic with the horizon. The udaya-jy
a should
be derived in the same manner as the ark
agr
a, (with the difference) that
the udaya-lagna is (here) taken as the Sun. Now, madhya-jy
a would be
the distance from the zenith to the point of intersection of the ecliptic and
the north-south circle. This has to be derived in the same manner as the
madhy
ahnacch
ay
a, with the difference that madhya-lagna is taken as the
Sun.
Now, the prime vertical and dr.kks.epa-sama-man.d.ala meet at the zenith,
and have their maximum divergence on the horizon. This maximum divergence is the udaya-jy
a. Now, the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta is perpendicular (viparta)
to the dr.kks.epa-sama-man. d.ala. Hence the maximum divergence between
the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta and the north-south circle on the horizon will be equal
to the udaya-jy
a. Such being the case, if the madhyama-jy
a is towards the
south, take as pram
an. a the karn.a (i.e., the radius) of the north-south circle
which has its end in the southern svastika. If however, the madhyama-jy
a
is towards the north, take as pram
an.a the radius which has its end in the
northern svastika. Then, the pram
an. a-phala would be the distance between

11.35 Parallax in latitude and longitude (Nati and Lambana)

583

the (south or north) svastika to the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta on the horizon, which is


the same as the udaya-jy
a. Icch
a will be the madhya-jy
a. And, icch
a-phala
would be the interstice between the end of the madhya-jy
a to the dr.kks.epavr.tta on the ecliptic. This is taken as the bhuj
a. This would be the Rsine
of that portion of the ecliptic lying between madhya-lagna and dr.kks.epalagna. The square of this is subtracted from the square of trijy
a and the
root of this would be its kot.i. This will be the Rsine of the portion of the
ecliptic which is between the north-south circle and the horizon. When the
square of the bhuj
a is subtracted from the square of the madhya-jy
a and
the root extracted, the result would be the distance between madhya-lagna
and dr.kks.epa-sama-man. d.ala. Take this as the pram
an.a-phala and the kot.i
mentioned above as the pram
an. a. Then take the radius of the ecliptic which
has its end at the dr.kks.epa-lagna as icch
a and derive the icch
a-phala by the
rule of three. The result would be dr.kks.epa-jy
a. It is the icch
a-phala since it
is the maximum divergence between the ecliptic and the dr.kks.epa-man.d.ala.
Now take as pram
an.a what has been stated as pram
an.a above, the distance
between the madhya-lagna and the horizon, which is an Rsine on the northsouth circle. Consider the madhyama-jy
a-kot.i as the pram
an. a-phala, and
the trijy
a as icch
a. The resultant icch
a-phala would be the maximum divergence between the ecliptic and the horizon, since the divergence between
the dr.kks.epa-lagna and the horizon is a Rsine on the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta. This is
called dr.kks.epa-sanku
or para-sanku
and dr.kks.epa-kot.i. Thus has been stated
the methods for deriving dr.kks.epa-jy
a and dr.kks.epa-kot.i.

11.35

Parallax in latitude and longitude (Nati and


Lambana)

Next are stated the methods for deriving nati (parallax in latitude) and lambana (parallax in longitude) which are used in computations relating to the
Moons shadow, eclipses and the like. Here, lambana is the amount by which
the shadow on the dr.nman

(the lo. d.ala which has its centre at dr.nmadhya


cation of the observer), is more than the shadow on the dr.nman

. d.ala whose

584

11. Gnomonic Shadow

centre is bhagola-madhya (the centre of the celestial sphere). This has been
stated in ch
ay
a-prakaran. a. Conceiving this lambana as the karn.a, a method
to derive the actual nati and lambana is going to be stated presently. Conceive, as before, the dr.kks.epa circle (vertical circle through the central ecliptic point), ecliptic and dr.nman

. d.ala (vertical circle). Conceive also another


r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta passing through the two r
asi-k
u.ta-s (poles of the ecliptic) and
the planet. Such being the case, the planet will be at the meeting place of
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta passing through the planet and dr.nman

. d.ala and the ecliptic.


Now, consider these three circles as having not been shifted by parallax and
the planet to have a parallactic shift. When the planet is shifted by parallax,
it is shifted downwards along the dr.nman

. d.ala. Here, the interstice along the


dr.nman

. d.ala between the planet shifted by parallax and the (location of the
unshifted planet at the) meeting point of the circles is the ch
ay
a-lambana
(parallax of the shadow). Then, the distance from this parallactically shifted
planet to the ecliptic is its nati (parallax in latitude). And, the interstice
between this shifted planet to the r
asi-k
u.t a circle passing through the (unshifted) planet will be its lambana (parallax in longitude). These parallaxes
in latitude and in longitude form the bhuj
a and kot.i, and the ch
ay
a-lambana
will be the hypotenuse.

11.36

Second correction for the Moon

Now the method to compute the ch


ay
a-lambana. This can be done as stated
earlier by computing the dr.kkarn.a which is in terms of minutes; it can also
be obtained (in terms of yojana-s) by converting the dr.kkarn.a into yojana-s.
The method for this is stated herein below.
Now, the manda-karn.a of the Sun and the Moon is the distance between
the planet (here Sun and Moon) and the centre of the bhagola (sphere
of the asterisms). For them, the second-true-hypotenuse (dvitya-sphut.akarn.a) is the interstice between the planet and the centre of the Earth.
Here, the interstice between the centre of the bhagola and the centre of the
Earth, will vary in accordance with that between the candrocca and the Sun.

11.36 Second correction for the Moon

585

Conceive that (later) interstice as the radius of the ucca-nca circle. Now, the
centre of the Earth and the centre of the bhagola are displaced along the line
connecting the centre of the orb of the Sun and the centre of the shadow of
the Earth. Hence, that line is the ucca-nca line. Since the Sun is always on
this ucca-nca line, in both the circles, the circle with its centre at the centre
of the bhagola, and the circle with centre of the Earth as its centre, its sphut.akal
a (true longitude in minutes) is (the same); there would be difference only
in the hypotenuse (karn.a). For the Moon, however, there is motion from the
ucca-nca line. And that will be the motion away from the Sun. Hence,
the tithi-s (lunar days) of specific lengths, commencing from pratipad would
be the kendra, being the planet-minus-ucca. Therefore, calculate the bhuj
aphala and kot.i-phala using the radius of the ucca-nca circle, which is the
distance from the centre of the bhagola and the centre of the Earth, and
the Rsines and Rcosines of the required tithi. Then, using these (bhuj
a and
kot.i-phala-s) and the manda-karn.a compute the dvitya-sphut.a-karn.a, either
in terms of minutes or in terms of yojana-s. Then, using this karn.a, correct
the bhuj
a-phala and apply that bhuj
a-phala to the Moon. The result will be
the candra-sphut. a on the circle with the centre of the Earth as the centre.
Thus is computed the dvitya-sphut.a by the principle of sghra-sphut. a.
Now, the radius of the ucca-nca circle is variable. Here is the rule relating
to it. Now, conceive of a line passing through the centre of the bhagola and
at right angles to the ucca-nca line passing through (the orbs of) the Sun
and the shadow of the Earth. If the candrocca lies on that side of the line
where the Sun is, then the centre of the bhagola will move to that side from
the centre of the Earth. The Sun will be at its ucca (apogee) at that time.
If, however, the candrocca is on that side of the transverse line where the
Earths shadow is, then the centre of the bhagola will move from the centre
of the Earth towards the Earths shadow. Since, at that time, the apogee
is at the Earths shadow, here also the lengthening and shortening of the
radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta will be according to the Rcosine of Sun-minuscandrocca. Here also, if the quadrants (beginning with) Mr.ga and Karki are
the same for both Rcosine Sun-minus-candrocca and Moon-minus-Sun, then

586

11. Gnomonic Shadow

the Rcosine of Moon-minus-Sun has to be applied positively in the mandakarn.a, otherwise negatively. When there is viks.epa (latitude) the above-said
kot.i-phala shall have to be applied to the viks.epa-kot.i.
Just as the viks.epa derived from the manda-sphut. a is squared and it is subtracted from the square of the manda-karn.a, if it is measured in terms of
the minutes of the pratiman. d.ala, and from the square of trijy
a being the
radius of the manda-karn.a circle, if it is measured in terms of the minutes
of manda-karn.a circle, and the root found and the resulting viks.epa-kot.i is
corrected by kot.i-phala measured in similar units (angular or in yojana-s):
In the same manner, here also, square the latitude derived from the Moons
first sphut.a, and subtract it from the square of the first hypotenuse or the
square of the trijy
a and extract the root. The result would be viks.epa-kot.i.
To this should be applied the second kot.i-phala (dvitya-sphut.a-kot.i-phala).
Here, the antya-phala in the case of dvitya-sphut.a is half the Rcosine of
Sun-minus-Moon. Since this would be in terms of yojana-s, the bhuj
a-phala
and kot.i-phala of dvitya-sphut.a which are derived by multiplying the Rsine
and Rcosine of Sun-minus-Moon by the above-said (antya-phala) and dividing by trijy
a, would also be in terms of yojana-s. Therefore, the viks.epa-kot.i
should also be converted into yojana-s and the kot.i-phala should be applied
to it. To the square of this add the square of the bhuj
a-phala, and extract
the root. The result will be the yojana-s between the centre of the Earth and
the centre of the Moon. Then, multiply the bhuj
a-phala by trijy
a and divide
by this karn.a and apply the result to the sphut.a of the Moon. The method
of this correction will be stated later. If the Rcosine of Sun-minus-candrocca
is in the Makar
adi quadrant, subtract the bhuj
a-phala from the Moon in the
bright fortnight, add in the dark fortnight. If it is the Karky
adi quadrant,
add in the bright fortnight and subtract in the dark fortnight.
Then, multiply the mean motion (of the Moon) by ten and by trijy
a and
divide by the second sphut.a-karn.a. The result will be the (mean) dvityasphut.a-gati. Thus is the method of dvitya-sphut.a. With this, the true Moon
on the circle with its centre at the centre of the Earth, and having at its
circumference the centre of the Moons orb can be derived. From this, the

11.37 Ch
ay
a-lambana: Parallax of the gnomon

587

sphut.a on the circle with its centre at the observer standing on the Earths
surface (bh
u-pr.s..tha) can be derived.

11.37

Chaya-lambana: Parallax of the gnomon

The method for this (derivation) using the correction for parallaxes in latitude and longitude (nata-lambana-sam
ara) is stated here. This method is
. sk
only slightly different from the method stated for the ch
ay
a-lambana. The
ch
ay
a-lambana in this case is conceived of in two parts. By how much has the
planet, which is shifted along the path of the shadow, been deflected along
the ecliptic, and secondly, by how much it has been deflected along the r
asik
u.ta circle passing through the planet. The first is called lambana (parallax
of longitude) which will be the difference between the sphut.a-s. The latter is
called nati (parallax in latitude). This will be in the form of latitude. Now,
consider a situation when a planet without latitude and hence located on
the ecliptic itself, happens to be passing through the zenith in the course of
its motion caused by the Pravaha-v
ayu. At that time, the ecliptic itself will
be the dr.nman

ay
a-lambana will be the
. d.ala (vertical circle). Hence, the ch
apparent depression towards the horizon along the ecliptic. Then, when the
planet is on the dr.kks.epa-man.d.ala, since at that time both the dr.nman

. d.ala
and the r
asi-k
u.ta circle passing through the planet are identical, the ch
ay
alambana which will be along the dr.nman

d
ala
will
be
at
right
angles
to
the
..
ecliptic. Hence, the ch
ay
a-lambana will be wholly in latitude and there will
be no difference between the sphut.a-s. On the other hand, when the r
asik
u.ta circle passing through the planet, the ecliptic and the dr.nman

. d.ala, are
all different, then the planet which is deflected from the meeting point of the
three circles due to parallax along the dr.nman

. d.ala, will deviate from both


the r
asi-k
u.ta circle and the ecliptic. There, the deflection from the r
asi-k
u.ta
circle will be the difference between the sphut.a-s and the deflection from the
ecliptic is the latitude. If there is already a latitudinal deflection, then this
will be the difference between the latitudes.
Here the division into quarters is through the r
asi-k
u.ta circle and the ecliptic.
Conceive the dr.nman

. d.ala as the valita (inclined) circle to these. Conceive

588

11. Gnomonic Shadow

also the ch
ay
a, which is the distance of separation between the planet and
the zenith along the dr.nman

. d.ala, to have its foot at the meeting point of the


three circles and its tip at the zenith. Then, ascertain at what distance are
the ecliptic and the r
asi-k
u.ta circle, passing through the planet, from the tip
of the ch
ay
a.
Now, the distance from the zenith to the ecliptic is the dr.kks.epa-jy
a. The
dr.kks.epa circle and the r
asi-k
u.ta circle passing through the planet, have
their meeting point at the r
asi-k
u.ta-s. Their maximum divergence is on the
ecliptic and is the distance between dr.kks.epa-lagna and the planet. It is to
be pram
an. a-phala here. The interstice between the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the
dr.kks.epa-lagna, being the trijy
a on the relevant section of the dr.kks.epa, is
the pram
an. a. In this dr.kks.epa circle itself, the interstice between the zenith
and the r
asi-k
u.ta is dr.kks.epa-kot.i. This is the icch
a. The icch
a-phala is the
interstice between the zenith and the r
asi-k
u.t a circle passing through the
planet. This is called dr.ggati-jy
a. These two, the dr.ggati and the dr.kks.epa,
would be the bhuj
a and kot.i for the ch
ay
a, and the ch
ay
a itself would be the
hypotenuse. In the same way, on the other side of the meeting point of the
three circles, the differences between the latitudes and of the sphut.a-s will
be the bhuj
a and kot.i for the hypotenuse formed by the portion forming the
ch
ay
a-lambana in the dr.nman

ay
a is the pram
an.a, dr.kks.epa
. d.ala. Here, ch
and dr.ggati are the pram
an. a-phala-s, the ch
ay
a-lambana is the icch
a and
nati and lambana are the icch
a-phala-s.
Therefore, the nati and the lambana might be derived using the dr.kks.epa
and dr.ggati. There, using the proportion: when the ch
ay
a becomes equal to
trijy
a, the ch
ay
a-lambana would be equal to the radius of the Earth, then
how much it will be for the desired ch
ay
a. Similarly, when the dr.kks.epa and
dr.g-gati become (separately) equal to trijy
a, the nati and the lambana will
each be equal to the number of minutes in the radius of the Earth, then
what will the nati and lambana be for the desired dr.kks.epa and dr.ggati.
Now, multiply the dr.kks.epa and dr.ggati by the yojana-s of the radius of the
Earth and divide by the yojana-s of dr.kkarn.a. Here, we can avoid multiplying

11.38 Dr.kkarn.a when the Moon has no latitude

589

and dividing by trijy


a since there will be no difference in the result. Here, it
is to be noted that if the planet is on the east of the dr.kks.epa-lagna, it will
be (seen) depressed towards the east, and the sphut.a related to the observer
on the surface of the Earth would be greater than the sphut.a related to the
centre of the Earth. If, however, the planet is on the west of the dr.kks.epalagna, it will be less. Similarly, If the viks.epa is to the south, there will
be a depression to the south and hence the nati will be towards the south,
and, if it is the other way, (the nati) will be towards the north. All these
follow logically (yukti-siddha). Thus has been stated the method for nati
and lambana.

11.38

Dr.kkarn.a when the Moon has no latitude

Now is stated the specialities in the matter of deriving the shadow and the
gnomon from which the dr.kkarn.a can be calculated when the Moon has
latitude. It is always the case that, when there is no latitude for the shadow,
the root of the sum of the squares of dr.kksepa-jy
a and dr.ggati-jy
a will be
the kot.i-sanku
of the shadow. When the shadow and gnomon are calculated
in this manner and multiplied, individually, by the yojana-s of the radius of
the Earth and divided by trijy
a, the bhuj
a and kot.i-phala-s in the calculation
of dr.kkarn.a are in terms of yojana-s. Now, the kot.i-phala is subtracted from
the hypotenuse of the second sphut.a in terms of yojana-s (dvitya-sphut.ayojana-karn.a). The remainder is squared and added to the square of the
bhuj
a-phala and the root found. The result will be the dr.kkarn.a in terms of
yojana-s.

11.39

Shadow and gnomon when the Moon has


latitude

Now is stated the method of deriving the shadow and gnomon for the Moon
when it has latitude. Conceive a circle as much removed (in all its parts)

590

11. Gnomonic Shadow

from the ecliptic as the latitude of the planet. The centre of this circle will
also be removed from the centre of the ecliptic by the measure of the latitude.
These two circles will be like the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala (celestial equator) and the
ahor
atra-vr.tta (diurnal circle). This circle is called viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta. The
planet will be situated in this circle at the point where the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta
passing through the planet meets it. Here, the rising and setting lagna (of
the planet) are the two points where the ecliptic and the horizon meet.
The lagna-sama-man. d.ala passes through these two points and the zenith.
Conceive the division of the sphere (into equal parts) made by the said lagnasama-man.d.ala, dr.kks.epa-man.d.ala and the horizon. Conceive the ecliptic as
the valita-vr.tta for these. Then the maximum divergence of the ecliptic to
the lagna-sama-man.d.ala would be dr.kks.epa-jy
a. dr.kks.epa-kot.i would be the
maximum divergence between the horizon and the ecliptic. This would be
the pram
an.a-phala. The pram
an.a is trijy
a. Icch
a is the interstice between
the planet and the point of intersection of the horizon and the ecliptic on
the ecliptic. Icch
a-phala is the interstice between the planet and the horizon.
This will be the gnomon of the planet which has latitude and the ch
ay
a is
the root of the sum of the squares of the dr.kks.epa-jy
a and dr.ggati-jy
a.
Now to the speciality of the gnomon and shadow of the planet on the viks.epakot.i-vr.tta. Here dr.kks.epa is that part of the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta forming the interstice between the zenith and the dr.kks.epa-lagna, which in turn is equal to
the maximum divergence between the lagna-sama-man. d.ala and the ecliptic.
The viks.epa (latitude) is the interstice between the dr.kks.epa-lagna and the
viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta along the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta. Now, add together or subtract
one from the other, the viks.epa and the dr.kks.epa. This will be the interstice between the zenith and the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta along the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta.
This is called nati (parallax in latitude). The kot.i of this is the maximum
distance between the horizon and the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta being a portion of
the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta. This is called parama-sanku

(maximum gnomon). Now,


the noon shadow and the noon gnomon on the north-south circle are derived by the sum or difference of the latitude and declination and the sum
or difference of the co-latitude (lambaka) and the declination, and by taking the interstices. In the same manner the nati and parama-sanku

on the

11.39 Shadow and gnomon when Moon has latitude

591

dr.kks.epa-vr.tta can be derived from the sum or difference of the dr.kks.epa and
viks.epa and the dr.kks.epa-kot.i and viks.epa. Here, the Rsine of the interstice
between the lagna and planet, which has been taken as the icch
a, should
be subtracted from trijy
a which is taken as the pram
an. a. The remainder
shall then be considered as the icch
a. Then the icch
a-phala would be the
difference between the pram
an. a-phala and the icch
a-phala.
The sara (celestial latitude) of the portion of the ecliptic that lies between
the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta touching the planet and the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta has to be derived first. Then, this sara should be multiplied by viks.epa-kot.i and divided
by trijy
a. The result will be the sara in the viks.epa-kot.i circle that lies between the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta touching the planet and the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta. Now,
multiply the sara of the viks.epa-kot.i circle by dr.kks.epa-kot.i and divide by
trijy
a. Subtract the result from the parama-sanku.

The remainder will be


the required sanku
of the planet on the viks.epa-kot.i circle.
It is to be noted that if the multiplication is done by parama-sanku,

it would
not be correct to divide by trijy
a. The division should be made by the
viks.epa-kot.i which has been corrected by the difference between the horizon
and the unman.d.ala. The reason for this is as follows: When the unnata-jy
a
of the diurnal circle or the sara of the nata-jy
a is multiplied by lambaka
(Rcosine of the latitude) and the result is divided by trijy
a, the result will
be the desired sanku
or the difference between the noon-day sanku
and the
desired sanku.

Here, if the multiplication has to be done by the noon-day


sanku,

then the division is not to be done by trijy


a. On the other hand, the
division should be made by that part of the diurnal circle which is above
the horizon and which is the radius of the diurnal circle as corrected by the
ks.iti-jy
a. In the same way, here, it is the dr.kks.epa-kot.i which is in place of
the lambaka, and the parama-sanku
which is in place of the noon-day sanku.

Now, the slant of the diurnal circles is in the same way as (i.e., parallel to)
the slant of the celestial equator. And, the slant of the viks.epa-kot.i circle is
in the same way as the slant of the ecliptic. Since the two are alike in nature,
there would be similarity in methodology (ny
aya-s
amya) also. Hence, the
sanku
is derived thus.

592

11. Gnomonic Shadow

Now, the shadow. Here, the sum or difference of the viks.epa and the dr.kks.epa
is the distance between the viks.epa-kot.i circle and the lagna-sama-man. d.ala,
on the dr.kks.epa circle. This is called nati.
Now, take the interstice between the planet and the dr.kks.epa circle on the
viks.epa-kot.i circle, and derive the Rsine and Rversine. These will result
when the Rsine and Rversine of the interstice between the dr.kks.epa-lagna and
Moon are, respectively, multiplied by viks.epa-kot.i and divided by trijy
a. Here
too, calculate first Rversine, and then multiply this Rversine by dr.kks.epa-jy
a
and divide by trijy
a. The result will give the slant of the tip of the Rversine
from its foot. Add to or subtract this from the above stated nati, derived
earlier, in accordance with its direction. The result obtained will be the
distance between the foot of the Rversine to zenith. This will also be the
same as that obtained from the foot of the Rsine stated here. From this
argument it will be clear that this is the distance between the planet at the
tip of the Rsine and the lagna-sama-man.d.ala. This is called b
ahu. When
this and the bhuj
a mentioned earlier are squared, added together and the
root calculated, the result will be the shadow. Thus have been stated the
methods to derive the gnomon and the shadow. Now, it is also possible to
calculate one of these two by the methods enunciated above, and calculate
the other by squaring it and subtracting it from the square of trijy
a and
finding the root of the difference.

Calculate the gnomon and shadow of the Moon in the above manner. From
these calculate the dr.kkarn.a in terms of yojana-s. Using the dr.kkarn.a-yojana
calculate the minutes of the corresponding lambana. The minutes of lambana
of the Sun and Moon are to be applied, respectively, to the (true longitudes
of) Sun and Moon. When the resulting true longitudes of the two are the
same, that will indicate the time of the middle of the eclipse.
Or the time of the lambana can be calculated from dr.ggati. Here, when the
dr.ggati is equal to trijy
a, the lambana will be four n
ad.ik
a-s. Then using the
rule of three, find out what will be the lambana for the desired dr.ggati. It
is known that when the dr.kks.epa and dr.ggati are equal to trijy
a then the
yojana-s of nati and of lambana are equal to the radius of the Earth. It
is also known that the minutes of madhya-yojana-karn. a are equal to trijy
a.
Multiply the minutes of lambana thus obtained by the true motion and
divide by mean motion. Then the lambana will be obtained in terms of
the minutes of bhagola. Therefore, multiply the madhya-yojana-karn. a and
the mean motion and divide by the yojana-s of the Earths radius. The
result will be 51,770 (asau sak
amah.). Now multiply dr.kks.epa and dr.ggati by
true motion and divide by 51,770. The results, dr.kks.epa and dr.ggati, can
be derived for everyday. Derive the time of lambana in this manner and
apply it to the syzygy (parv
anta). Then calculate the dr.kks.epa-lagna and
the planet for the required time and (from them) find the lambana in time
units and apply it to the parv
anta. In this manner do the avises.a-karma

594

12. Eclipse

(iteration or repetition of the calculation till the results do not vary). Here,
only by knowing the correct lambana, the sama-lipt
a-k
ala (the parv
anta,
which represents the time of equality in minutes of true Sun and Moon) can
be ascertained. And, only by knowing the sama-lipt
a-k
ala can the lambanaminutes be ascertained. Hence, the necessity of avises.a-karma.
Since, at this moment, there is no difference in the true longitudes for the
Sun and the Moon, there will be no east-west divergence. Their divergence
will only be north-south, on account of nati and viks.epa . These two have to
be ascertained and shall have to be subtracted from the sum of the halves
of the orbs (bimb
ardha-s of the Sun and Moon). The remainder will give the
extent of the eclipsed portion (of the orbs).
Now, when the distance between the spheres (bimba-ghana-madhy
antara of
the Sun and Moon) is equal to half the sum of the orbs (bimba-yog
ardha),
the circumferences of the two orbs will be touching each other. The commencement or end of the eclipse will occur at that time. When, however,
the distance between the spheres (bimb
antara) is greater, there will be no
eclipse, since the circumferences will not touch.
Now, at the desired time apply the lambana to the true longitudes of the Sun
and the Moon. Find the square of their difference. To it add the square of
the true viks.epa and find the root. The result will be the distance between
the spheres at that time. Subtract this from the sum of the minutes of half
the sum of the two orbs. The remainder will be the extent of the eclipsed
portion at that time. This is the method to ascertain the eclipsed portion
at any required time.

12.2

Time for a given extent of eclipse

Here is the method to calculate the moment of time when a specified portion
(of the orbs) have been eclipsed. Now, the eclipsed portion subtracted from
half the sum of the orbs will give the distance between the centres of the two
spheres (bimba-ghana-madhy
antar
ala). This is called bimb
antara (difference

12.3 Computation of Bimb


antara

595

between the spheres). Using this, the desired time is to be calculated. When
the square of true viks.epa is subtracted from the square of the difference of
the bimb
antara, the root of the remainder will be the difference between the
true longitudes (sphut.a
ntara). Then, calculate the time using the proportion:
If 60 n
ad.ik
a-s pertain to the difference between daily motions, how many
n
ad.ik
a-s would it be for the given sphut.a
ntara. The time got thus is to be
applied to the time of the parv
anta. Calculate the true viks.epa for that time,
square it and subtract from the square of half the sum of the orbs. The root
thereof would again be the sphut.a
ntara. In this manner, the result obtained
by avises.a-karma will be the true time of the required (extent of the) eclipse.
Then calculate in this manner, the times, before and after mid-eclipse, which
are required for the bimb
antara to be equal to half the sum of the orbs, after
finding the nati and viks.epa by avises.a-karma. The results will be the times
of the commencement and end of the eclipse.
In computing eclipses, it is necessary to know, first, the actual (moment in)
time when the longitudes of the planets are identical. Now, when the Moon
is exactly six r
asi-s (180 degrees) away from the Sun, it is the end of the
full-Moon. When that Moon is hidden by the Earths shadow it is lunar
eclipse.
When at the end of new-Moon, the Moon hides the Sun, then it is solar
eclipse. Now, when either of the (two) eclipses (their times, as stated above)
occurs near sunset, then calculate the longitudes of the Sun and the Moon
for that time. If such times occur at near sunrise, then also calculate the
Sun and Moon for that time. There, if the (longitude of) Moon is more,
the distance will keep increasing. If the candra-sphut. a is lesser, there will be
further and further decrease. Then use the difference in daily motion to find
the time of conjunction.

12.3

Computation of Bimbantara

Here is the method for computing the bimb


antara. Now, the orbs of the
Sun, Moon and the Earths shadow will appear to be large when they are

596

12. Eclipse

close to the Earth, and appear to be small when they are far from the Earth.
The dimension of their (the Sun and the Moon) orbs is dependent on the
magnitude of sva-bh
umyantara-karn. a (the distance from the Earth). When
they move away from the Earth, they (the orbs) look small. Therefore,
when the bimba is derived using the karn.a, the reverse rule of three is to be
employed. Now, the minutes of the orb would be changing every moment.
But the yojana measure of the orb always remains the same. Now, the rule
of three here is: If the minutes of the sphut.a-yojana-karn.a is that of trijy
a,
how much it would be for the yojana measure of the orbs. So, the yojana
measure of the diameters of the orbs of the Sun and the Moon are multiplied
by trijy
a and divided by the yojana measure of the sva-bh
umyantara-karn. a
(the distance between the planet and the Earth). The result will be the
diameter of the orb (of the planet) in minutes. Here the division should be
made by dr.kkarn.a since it is a case of the use of the reverse rule of three.
As is well known, the rule is:
vyastatrair
asikaphalam icch
abhaktapram
an. aphalagh
atah. .
[Br
ahmasphut. a-siddh
anta, Gan.ita, 11]
The result of the reverse rule of three is the product of praman.a
and (pram
an. a)-phala divided by the icch
a.

12.4

Orb measure of the planets

Now, the orb of the Sun is a large sphere of effulgence. Somewhat much
smaller is the sphere of the orb of the Earth. That half of the (Earths orb)
which is facing the Sun will be illuminated. The other half will be dark.
And that is the shadow of the Earth. Of this, the base will be large and the
tip pointed. Here, since the orb of the Sun is large, the rays that go beyond
the Earths (circumference) will be those emanating from the circumference
of the Sun. These rays will converge. At that point will be the tip of the
Earths shadow; its radius at its base will be that of the Earth. From then
on, being in the form of a circle (based cone), it tapers to a point. The Suns
rays emanating from its circumference pass over the circumference of the

12.5 Direction of the eclipses and their commencement

597

Earth and would converge to a point on the other side of the Earth. Now,
the distance of the Earth from the Sun is equal to the sva-bh
umyantarakarn.a in yojana-s. For this distance, the rays of the Sun emanating from
the circumference of the Sun come up to the Earth according to the Earths
diameter. Thus, for the rays to taper by an amount of measure equal to
the difference between the diameters of the Sun and the Earth, the distance
required is the above karn.a in yojana measures. Then, what that distance
would be for the tapering by an amount equal to the diameter of the Earth,
that would give the length of the shadow. Now, for the shadow of the Earth,
for the distance from the tip of the shadow to the base of the shadow (cone),
the diameter is equal to the diameter of the Earth in yojana-s: then, for the
distance from the tip of the shadow to the point where the Moons path cuts
it, what is the diameter of the Earths shadow at that place. To know this,
subtract the candra-karn.a from the length of the Earths shadow, multiply
it by the diameter of the Earth and divide by the length of the Earths
shadow. The result will be the yojana measure of the diameter of Earths
shadow along the path of the Moon. For this (yojana measure) derive the
diameter in terms of minutes.
Thus has been stated the method for obtaining the orb-measures of the
eclipsed and eclipsing planets. From these (measures of the) orbs of the
planets, the times of begining, middle, and that of any desired extent of
eclipse can be calculated as explained earlier.

12.5

Direction of the eclipses and their commencement

Here is stated how to know the direction where the eclipse commences and
what its configuration (samsth
ana) would be at any desired time. Now,
when the solar eclipse commences, the Moon which is in the west, moves a
little towards the east, and a little of the Suns orb at its circumference in
the west will begin to be hidden. It is now intended to identify that portion
thereof. Now, the ecliptic is a circle which touches the centre of the Suns

598

12. Eclipse

sphere and the centre of the Moons sphere when there is no viks.epa for the
Moon. At that time, it is that portion in the west of the Suns sphere from
where the ecliptic passes through, that will be the portion that gets hidden
first by the Moon when it has no viks.epa. The diurnal circle of the Sun at
that moment will be touching the centre of the solar sphere. Since that is
exactly east-west in places of zero latitude, there the diurnal circle emerges
exactly to the west.

12.6

Ayana-valana

Since, however, the ecliptic deviates from the diurnal circle, the emergence
of the ecliptic will be a little to the north or south of the western direction.
Hence the beginning of the eclipse which occurs on the solar orb will be
deflected from the west by a certain amount at that time. This deflection is

called Ayana-valana.
Now, it is necessary to know how much this would be. Conceive of the
following set up: Let the winter solstice on the ecliptic touch the north-south
circle at the meridian ecliptic point. Let the equinox be at the eastern rising
point of the ecliptic and the Sun be one r
asi (30 degrees) from the winter
solstice in the eastern hemisphere. There, the intersection of the ecliptic and
the diurnal circle would be at the centre of the Suns sphere. The emergence
of the diurnal circle would be exactly west thereof and the emergence of the
ecliptic would be deflected a little to the south. It is to be known what
this divergence is. Now, Rcosines on the ecliptic are the Rversines on the
radius which has its tip at the point of intersection of the ecliptic and the
north-south circle drawn from the centre of the Earth. Hence the bases of
the Rcosines are on that line.
Now, conceive of a Rsine corresponding to the Rcosine (kot.i-c
apa) which has
its tip at the centre of the Sun and its foot at the point of intersection of
the north-south circle and the ecliptic. Then, conceive of a Rcosine having
its tip at the point where the ecliptic emerges through from the western


12.6 Ayana-valana

599

side of the Suns orb. Then the feet of both of them, will touch the diameter
which has its tip at the meridian ecliptic point. There, that which has its tip
at the centre of the planetary sphere (bimba-ghana-madhya) will touch the
bottom circumference, and the interstice between the feet of the Rcosines on
the diameter, having its tip on the circumference, will touch the top (of the
circumference). It is well known that the kot.i-khan.d.a is equal to the distance
between the feet of the kot.i-jy
a-s. Therefore, conceive of a vertical line from
the centre of the Earths sphere and with its tip at the zenith. Now, when
the ayan
anta touches the north-south circle, the maximum distance between
the ayan
anta and the vertical line will be the maximum declination.
Then consider the point where the base of the Rcosine which has its tip at
the centre of the planets sphere touches the ayan
anta-s
utra. The distance
from that point to the vertical line would be equal to the required declination (ist.a
pakrama). Now, the distance from the base of the Rcosine with
its tip at the circumference of the orb to the vertical line will be greater
than the required declination. This excess will be the declination pertaining
to the bhuj
a-khan.d.a. The a
yana-valana will be equal to the said (excess)
declination associated with the bhuj
a-khan.d.a.
This declination of the said bhuj
a-khan.d.a will be the distance between the
points of emergence of the points of intersection of the diurnal circle and
of the ecliptic on the circumference at the west end of the orb. Here, the
bhuj
a-khan.d.a is to be derived using the Rcosine with its tip at the middle of
the arc. The Rcosine with its tip at the centre of the sphere is sphut.a-kot.i.
Since the distance between the centre of the sphere and the circumference is
the c
apa-khan.d.a, the bhuj
a-jy
a-khan.d.a is derived by multiplying the sphut.akot.i-c
apa-jy
aminusone-fourth-the-orb with the icch
a-r
asi formed by half
the orb which is the full chord, and dividing by the radius. When this is
multiplied by maximum declination and divided by the radius, the result is
the a
yana-valana. There, it should be possible to derive the declination of
the kot.i-jy
a by first multiplying the kot.i-jy
a by the maximum declination
and dividing by the radius. In the result, there will be no difference. Thus
the derivation of a
yana-valana.

12. Eclipse

. a-valana
Aks

In a place having aks.a (terrestial latitude), (besides the above) the diurnal
circle is also inclined and it is necessary to find this inclination. For this
conceive of an east-west circle. The centre of this circle, its circumference and
all its parts should be removed from the prime vertical by an amount equal
to ch
ay
a-bhuj
a at the desired time. This will be related to the prime vertical
even as the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala is to the sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta. This circle is called
ch
ay
a-kot.i-vr.tta. It is to be noted that the ch
ay
a-kot.i-vr.tta, apakrama-vr.tta
and sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta cut one another at the centre of the planetary sphere
(bimba-ghana-madhya). And the circumferences of the three will emerge in
three different ways. The ch
ay
a-kot.i-vr.tta will go straight westwards from the
centre of the solar sphere. The sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta will be inclined southwards
from this. Therefore, when the Sun is in the eastern side of the north-south
circle, the sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta will emerge deflected to the south from the west.
When, however, the planet is on the western side of the north-south circle,
the sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta (diurnal circle) is deflected to the north. This removal
is called a
ks.a-valana.

12.8

Combined valana

When the two valana-s arrived at as above are added together when their
directions are similar, and subtracted from each other when their directions
are dissimilar, the distance between the icch
a-kot.i-vr.tta and the ecliptic is
obtained. At the periphery of the orb, this will be the valana in a place
with latitude, when there is no viks.epa . When, however, there is viks.epa
there is a shift of it by the measure of the viks.epa and along the direction
of the viks.epa. There the viks.epa which had been derived earlier applying
the rule of three will be that relating to the bimb
antara (difference of the
orb). Therefore, multiply that viks.epa by half the diameter of the Suns
orb and divide by bimb
antara. The result will be the viks.epa-valana at the
circumference of the solar orb. In this way, the point of contact and release
will also deflect according to this, on the circumference of the orb. Again, on

12.9 Graphical chart of the eclipse

601

the eastern side of the circumference of the orb, the directions of the valana
will be correspondingly reversed. This alone is the speciality here.
Here, since the Sun is being eclipsed, the Sun is called gr
ahya-graha (the
planet that is eclipsed). Thus has been stated the derivation of the a
yanavalana-s by the use of the rule of three. The same principle is applicable to
the derivation (also of the) a
ks.a-valana.
Thus it is seen that the ch
ay
a-kot.i-vr.tta and sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta meet at the
centre of the planetary sphere (bimba-ghana-madhya) and have the maximum
divergence on the north-south circle. The last will be a section of the latitude
pertaining to the natotkrama-jy
a at that time. Nata is the difference between
the planet and the north-south circle along the sv
ahor
atra-vr.tta. Here, the
nata-jy
a is the Rcosine.
Since the aks.a represents the maximum declination, we now have the proportion; If nata-jy
a multiplied by aks.a-jy
a and divided by trijy
a is the a
ks.avalana for the trijy
a-vr.tta, then what would it be for the radius of the orb
eclipsed (gr
ahya-bimb
ardha); this would give the valana for the circumference
of the eclipsed orb.

12.9

Graphical chart of the eclipse

Calculate the valana for the desired time and the times of commencement
and release of the eclipse and draw the eclipsed orb. Further, mark on it
the east-west line and the north-south line. Then identify a point removed
from the east-west line by a measure equal to the valana. Now, construct
a valana-line passing through the above-said point and the centre of the
eclipsed orb. Then draw the orb of the eclipsing planet with its centre
on the said valana-line at a point which is removed from the centre of the
eclipsed body by a distance equal to the difference between the orbs at that
time. Then, that portion of the eclipsed orb which falls outside the eclipsing
orb would be bright. And, that portion of the eclipsed body which falls

602

12. Eclipse

inside the eclipsing body would be hidden. The setup of the eclipse has to
be understood in this manner. Here, it is not essential to make the valana
for the eclipsed body. It can as well be made for a circle of desired radius.
In that case, care should be taken to move by the needed valana from the
dr.k-s
utra of that circle. This is the speciality. Thus has been stated the
computation of the solar eclipse.

12.10

Lunar eclipse

What is of note in the lunar eclipse is that the Moons orb is the orb that
is eclipsed, the Earths shadow is the eclipser. Here, the (circular) extent of
the Earths shadow along the path of the Moon is called tamo-bimba (orb
of darkness). Since here, both the eclipsed and the eclipser are at the same
distance from the observer, the nati and lambana are the same for both,
and hence both (nati and lambana) might be ignored in this case (of lunar
eclipse). All the other rules are the same here too (as in the solar eclipse).
Thus have been stated the procedures for the computation of eclipses.
It is to be noted however, that for the kendra-bhuj
a-phala of both the Sun
and the Moon there is a correction called ahardala-paridhi-sphut. a (half daytrue-circumference). There will occur difference of true longitude on account
of this. And, for that reason, there will occur some difference in the time
of equality of the longitudes (of the Sun and the Moon). There is a view
(paks.a) that, on account of this, there will be a difference also in the time of
the eclipse.

Next is stated vyatp


at
a. Now, if the declinations of the two, Sun and Moon,
become equal at some time, when one of them is in an odd quadrant with the
declination increasing and the other in an even quadrant with declination
decreasing, then at that moment vyatp
ata is said to occur.

13.2

Derivation of declination

A method of computing the declination of the Sun and the Moon has been
stated earlier. Now, another method of computing the declination of the
Moon is stated here. Now, when a set up is conceived where there are
several circles of equal measure and have a common centre but with their
circumferences diverging, it will be that the circumferences of all circles (considering them in pairs) will intersect with all other circles (again considering
them in pairs) at two places, and will have maximum divergence at two
places. Now, we know where the ecliptic and the celestial equator meet and
where they have maximum divergence. Now, if it is known that the ecliptic
and the viks.epa-vr.tta meet at this place and that this much is the maximum
divergence and that from their point of intersection the Moon has moved
this much on the viks.epa-vr.tta, then how far the celestial equator is from the
Moon can be computed as in the case of the declination of the Sun.

604

13. Vyatp

Viks.epa

Here is stated a method to know at which place the ghat.ik


a-vr.tta and the
viks.epa-vr.tta meet and what is their maximum divergence. Now, on a particular day towards the middle of the Mna, the meeting of the ghat.ik
a and
apakrama-vr.tta-s will occur. From that meeting point, the apakrama-vr.tta
will diverge northwards. From the same day it will diverge southwards from
the middle of Kany
a. When it has fully diverged, it would have diverged
by 24 degrees. The viks.epa-vr.tta will touch the apakrama-vr.tta at the point
where R
ahu (the ascending node of the Moon) is situated. It will then diverge northwards from the point (R
ahu) and from Ketu (the descending node
of the Moon), it will diverge southwards. Conceive that R
ahu is situated at
the point of contact of the apakrama-man. d.ala and the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala, and
that this point is rising at the equator. Then, the maximum declination and
maximum viks.epa are on the north-south circle. There, from the ghat.ik
avr.tta, the apakrama-vr.tta, and from that, the viks.epa-vr.tta, will both diverge
in the same direction. For this reason, the ayan
anta-pradesa (the solsticial
points on Moons orbit) of the viks.epa-vr.tta is removed from the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta
by the sum of the maximum declination and maximum viks.epa. Hence, that
will be the maximum declination of the Moon on that day. Therefore, taking
it as the pram
an. a-phala, it should be possible to derive the declination of
the Moon at that time from the equinox.
This being the case, the northern r
asi-k
u.ta (pole of the ecliptic) is on the
north-south circle, raised from the nothern Dhruva (north pole) by a measure
equal to the maximum declination. Since the northern viks.epa-p
arsva (pole
of the viks.epa-vr.tta) is raised above this by the measure of the maximum
viks.epa, the distance of the viks.epa-p
arsva to the (north) pole is equal to
the sum of the maximum viks.epa and the maximum apakrama. The relation
of the viks.epa-vr.tta to the viks.epa-p
arsva is the same as that between the
Dhruva (north pole) and the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and that between the r
asi-k
u.ta
and the apakrama-vr.tta. Therefore, the distance between the Dhruva and
the viks.epa-p
arsva will be equal to the maximum divergence between the
ghat.ik
a and viks.epa-vr.tta-s. Now, conceive of a circle touching the Dhruva

13.3 Viks.epa

605

and the viks.epa-parsva. In this circle will occur the maximum divergence
between the ghat.ik
a and viks.epa-vr.tta-s.
Now, the distance between the Dhruva and the viks.epa-p
arsva has to be
computed. Conceive the set-up as above and consider R
ahu to be at the
ayan
anta in the middle of the arc. Then the viks.epa-vr.tta would be deflected
towards the north by the measure of the maximum viks.epa from the vernal
equinox along the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta which touches the equinox. Therefore,
the viks.epa-p
arsva would be shifted to the west by the above-said measure
from the uttara-r
asi-k
u.ta (north pole of the ecliptic). Since in this set-up,
the maximum viks.epa and maximum declination form the bhuj
a and kot.i,
the distance between the pole and the viks.epa-p
arsva will be the karn.a.
Consider the circle which passes through the viks.epa-p
arsva and the poles.
The maximum divergence of ghat.ika and apakrama-vr.tta-s on this is the
viks.ep
ayan
anta. Hence this circle is called viks.ep
ayan
anta-vr.tta. The points
of intersection of this with the north-south circle are the poles. Starting from
here, as we traverse a measure of the maximum declination, the viks.ep
ayanavr.tta would have moved towards the west by the measure of the maximum
viks.epa. When we traverse a quadrant it would have inclined towards the
west from the north-south circle and will have its maximum divergence in
the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta. Therefore, the viks.ep
ayan
anta would shift to the west
from the north-south circle by the above said measure to touch the ghat.ik
avr.tta. Therefore, the viks.epa-vis.uvat would be on the ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala raised
by the above measure from the vernal equinox on the horizon. The reason
for what is said above is that the meeting point and maximum divergence
between two circles would occur at a distance equal to the quadrant of the
circle. This shift is called viks.epa-calana. Now, when this correction (of
viks.epa-calana) is applied to the commencing point of apakrama-vis. uvat the
result will be the commencement of the viks.epa-vis.uvat.
For this reason, when R
ahu arrives at the vis.uvat in the middle of sign
Kany
a (Virgo), the viks.epa-vr.tta would have shifted towards the north of
the ayan
anta at the centre of the arc by a measure equal to the maximum
declination. The viks.epa-p
arsva would have been depressed to that extent

606

13. Vyatp
ata

from the northern r


asi-k
u.ta. The distance of separation between the poles at
that time would be the maximum declination of the Moon. That will be half
a degree less than twenty (i.e., 19.5 degrees). Since the difference between
viks.epa-p
arsva and Dhruva is on the north-south circle, the viks.ep
ayan
anta
will lie on the apakram
ayan
anta only. The viks.epa-vis.uvat and the apakramavis.uvat will be at the same point. At that time there will be no viks.epacalana.
When, however, R
ahu reaches the ayan
anta at the middle of the Mithunar
asi (Gemini), the viks.epa-vr.tta will touch the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta which passes
through the middle of Kany
a-r
asi northwards at a distance equal to the
maximum declination. Hence, the viks.epa-p
arsva will be shifted to the east
from the northern r
asi-k
u.ta by a measure equal to the maximum viks.epa.
There again, the distance between the viks.epa-p
arsva and the Dhruva will
represent the hypotenuse. The viks.epa-p
arsva will be above the northern
r
asi-k
u.ta just as in the case when the R
ahu is on the vernal equinox. In
this way, the location of southern viks.epa-p
arsva will be on the southern
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Thus the viks.epa-p
arsva is going around, according to the
motion of R
ahu, at a place which is removed from the r
asi-k
u.ta by a distance
of the maximum viks.epa.

13.4

Viks.epa-calana

Now, conceive of a circle with radius equal to the maximum viks.epa. The
centre of this circle should be at a place on the line from the r
asi-k
u.ta
to the centre of the celestial sphere at a distance of the Rversine of the
maximum viks.epa. Conceive of another circle with its circumference passing
through the centre of the above-mentioned circle and having its centre on
the polar axis (aks.a-dan.d.a). These two circles will then be mutually like
the kaks.y
a-vr.tta and ucca-nca-vr.tta. Here the ascent of the ks.epa-p
arsva
(viks.epa-p
arsva) from the polar axis would represent trijy
a. Now, note the
point where the ks.epa-p
arsva falls on the viks.epa-p
arsva (vr.tta); from that
point draw a vertical line to its own centre; that line will represent the
kot.i-phala. The east-west distance on the north-south circle represents the

13.5 Karn.a
nayana

607

bhuj
a-phala. When the viks.epa-p
arsva, which is revolving, happens to be
above the r
asi-k
u.t a, add the kot.i-phala to the ascent of the ks.epa-p
arsva
(ks.epa-p
arsvonnati); if it is below, subtract it. When R
ahu happens to be at
the middle of Mna-r
asi, the height from the pole will be maximum. And,
when R
ahu happens to be in the middle of Kany
a-r
asi, it will be lowest.
Hence it turns out that the updown distance is kot.i-phala, and that it is
positive in the (six) r
asi-s commencing from Makara-r
asi and negative in
the (six) r
asi-s commencing from Karki.
At the ayan
anta, the bhuj
a is full (i.e., 90 degrees). When R
ahu is situated
there, there will be a east-west shift from the ks.epa-p
arsva, and the bhuj
aphala is also east-west. The day when R
ahu is situated at the beginning of
Tul
a (Libra) the ks.epa-p
arsva is to the west of the north-south circle and so
the viks.epa-calana is to be added to the beginning of Libra. At the beginning
of Aries (Mes.a
di), the viks.epa-p
arsva is to the east of the north- south circle,
and hence (the viks.epa-calana) is to be subtracted. Now, multiply the Rsine
and Rcosine of R
ahu at the beginning of vis.uvat by maximum viks.epa and
divide by trijy
a. The results will be the bhuj
a-phala and kot.i-phala.

13.5

Karn.
anayana

Now is given the method to derive the karn.a (hypotenuse) from the above.
The karn.a is the Rsine of the distance between the pole and viks.epa-p
arsva,
at the time when the above ks.ep
ayan
anta-vr.tta passes through the r
asi-k
u.ta.
If the maximum declination and maximum viks.epa have to be added to or
subtracted from each other, then mutual multiplication by the Rcosines and
division by trijy
a are necessary.
When the maximum declination and the kot.i-phala are to be added to or
subtracted from each other, the multipliers would be antya-ks.epa-kot.i and
anty
apakrama-kot. i. Now, the maximum viks.epa, which is the Rsine of a
portion of the north-south circle, is the line from the centre of the ks.epap
arsva-vr.tta to the circumference of this (north-south circle). A portion of
this (line) is kot.i-phala. This is all the difference, and there is no difference

608

13. Vyatp
ata

in placement. Therefore, in the addition or subtraction there will be no


difference in the multipliers; the difference is only in the multiplicands. Now
when the maximum declination is multiplied by the Rcosine of the maximum
viks.epa and divided by trijy
a, the result will be the distance from the centre
of the ks.ep
a-parsva to the polar axis (aks.a-dan.d.a). The kot.i-phala will be
the remnant of this. When multiplication is made by param
apakrama-kot. i
and division by trijy
a, the result obtained, being the distance from the kot.iphal
agr
a to the viks.epa-p
ars.va, is the bhuj
a-phala. Then, find the square of
the sum or the difference of these two, add it to the square of the bhuj
a-phala
and find the square root. The result will be the Rsine of the arc forming
the distance between the pole and the viks.epa-p
arsva. This is also the same
as the maximum declination, which is the maximum divergence between the
ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and the viks.epa-vr.tta.

13.6

Determination of Viks.epa-calana

Now, the maximum divergence between the ks.ep


ayan
anta-vr.tta and the
north-south circle on the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta is got by applying the rule of three:
If the divergence in the north-south is equal to the bhuj
a-phala when one
moves along the ks.epayananta-vr.tta from the pole to the ks.epa-p
arsva, then
what will it be if one moves through quarter of a circle. This will be the
distance between the two ayan
anta-s, since this is the distance between the
vis.uvat-s. This is called viks.epa-calana. When viks.epa-calana is applied to
s
ayana-candra (i.e., Moon to which a
yana-calana has been applied) the result will be the distance between the point of contact of the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta
and viks.epa-vr.tta to the Moon, on the viks.epa-vr.tta.

13.7

Time of Vyatpata

Now, the auspicious time of vyatp


ata occurs when the declination of the
Moon to which viks.epa-calana and ayana-calana have been applied, and that

13.8 Derivation of Vyatp


ata

609

of the Sun to which ayana-calana has been applied, become identical, when
one of them is in an odd quadrant and the other in an even quadrant.

13.8

Derivation of Vyatpata

Now is explained the procedure for finding the time at which the declinations
of the two become equal. First estimate an approximate time when there
is equality of the longitudes (bhuj
a-s
amya) for the Sun and the Moon when
one is in an odd quadrant and the other in an even quadrant. Using the
bhuj
a-jy
a of the Sun find out its declination at that time. Then, using the
rule of three, ascertain what the bhuj
a-jy
a of the Moon should be, for it to
have the same declination as the Sun. Now, the maximum declination of the
sun is 1398 (dugdhaloka). Here, the rule of three would be as follows: If
this (i.e., 1398) is the bhuj
a-jy
a for the Sun, then what would be the bhuj
ajy
a for the Moon which has a given maximum declination at the moment,
to become equal in declination to the Sun. This is the rule of three to be
applied. Here, the Suns maximum declination is the pram
an.a, its bhuj
a-jy
a
is pram
an.a-phala, the Moons anty
apakrama is the icch
a and the Moons
bhuj
a-jy
a is icch
a-phala.
Now, if the anty
apakrama is large, the bhuj
a-jy
a will be small; for small
anty
apakrama, the other will be big. Then, at that time the declinations
would become equal. Hence the inverse rule of three should be applied.
For this, multiply the bhuj
a-jy
a and anty
apakrama of the Sun and divide by
the anty
apakrama of the Moon. The result will be the Moons bhuj
a-jy
a.
Compute its arc and apply it to the ayana-sandhi or gola-sandhi according
to the quadrant and compute the Moon.
Then subtract the Moon computed (as above) from the Sun, and the Moon
which has been computed (independently) for the given time. Place the
result in two places and multiply by the daily motions of the Sun and the
Moon, respectively, and divide by the sum of the daily motions. This correction is to be applied to the two separately. It has to be subtracted if the

610

13. Vyatp
ata

vyatp
ata is past and to be added if the vyatp
ata is yet to occur. In the case
of the node, the application should be made the other way. In this way do
avises.a-karma (repeating the process till results do not vary) till the Moons
longitude-arc (bhuj
a-dhanus) derived from the Sun and that of the Moon
computed for the desired time become equal. There, in the odd quadrants,
if the longitude-arc of the Moon calculated for the desired time is larger, the
vyatp
ata has already occured; if it is smaller, then the vyatp
ata is yet to
occur. In the even quadrants it is the other way round. Here, when, for the
Sun and the Moon, and for the Earths shadow and the Moon, the diurnal
circle is the same, vyatp
ata occurs. When however, even if parts of the orbs
do not have identical diurnal circles, there will be no vyatp
ata. Hence a
vyatp
ata will last for about four n
adika-s.

Chapter 14
Maud.hya and Visibility Corrections
of Planets
14.1

Computation of visibility correction

Next is stated darsana-sam


ara. This is indicated by that part of the
. sk
ecliptic which touches the horizon when a planet having viks.epa rises above
the horizon. Consider a set up in which the northern r
asi-k
u.ta is raised
and the planet is in one of the first three r
asi-s beginning from Mes.a; let
the point of contact of the ecliptic and the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta passing through
the planet be rising on the horizon. Further, suppose that the planet has
viks.epa towards the northern r
asi-k
u.ta. Then, the planet will be raised
above the horizon. Therefore, the gnomon of the planet at that time is
computed first. When this gnomon is taken as Rcosine, its hypotenuse will
be the distance between the planet and the horizon on the viks.epa-kot.ivr.tta. Now, the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta meets the apakrama-vr.tta towards the south
at a distance equal to the distance between the zenith and the dr.kks.epa. In
the dr.kks.pepa-vr.tta itself, at a place north of the horizon, at a height equal to
the distance between the horizon and the dr.kks.epa, is the northern r
asi-k
u.ta.
The northern viks.epa is that which moves towards the northern r
asi-k
u.ta.
Applying the rule of three: If the maximum distance between the horizon
and the r
asi-k
u.ta (vr.tta) touching the planet is the dr.kks.epa, how much will
be the distance from the horizon to the planet with viks.epa; the result would
give the gnomon of the planet with viks.epa. Then, the proportion: If for the

612

14. Maud.hya and Visibility Corrections of Planets

dr.kks.epa-kot.i the hypotenuse is trijy


a, then what will be the hypotenuse for
this gnomon, will give as result the portion of the arc of the ecliptic between
the planet and the horizon. In the same manner, the portion of the viks.epakot.i-vr.tta for the distance between the horizon and the planet with latitude
is also obtained.

14.2

Rising and setting of planets

Now, conceive of a r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta touching the meeting point of viks.epa-kot.ivr.tta and the horizon. This circle will intersect the r
asi-k
u.ta circle passing
through the planet and the r
asi-k
u.ta. The planet is situated at a distance of
the viks.epa-kot.i from the said point of contact. At that place, the divergence
between the two r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta-s is equal to the hypotenuse of the sanku
of
a planet with viks.epa which has been obtained. In this set up, the maximum
divergence between the two r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s would be on the ecliptic. Here,
when the true planet is the lagna, for the reason that the planet would be
raised by that number of minutes at the time, the distance between the true
planet and the lagna when the planet rises will be the maximum distance
between r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta-s. Since the rising has taken place earlier here, this
difference is subtracted from the true planet to get the lagna at the time of
the rising of the planet. This is the case when the viks.epa is north.
In the case of the south viks.epa when the same set up is conceived, the planet
will be below the horizon, since due to latitude it is deflected from the point
of contact of the horizon and the ecliptic, above and southwards on the r
asik
u.ta-vr.tta. When this is the case, just as the rising and setting lagna were
directed earlier to be computed using the downward gnomon (adho-mukhasanku),

(working in the same manner), the minutes of the distance between


the true planet and the lagna at the time of the rising of the planet which
is at the tip of its viks.epa would be obtained. Since the planet will rise only
after that much time, these minutes of the difference should be added to the
true planet to derive the lagna at the rising of the planet.

14.3 Planetary visibility

613

In the same manner, derive the setting lagna at the time of the setting of
the planet. Now, if it is the downward gnomon, the planet will set earlier, if
it is the upward gnomon, the planet will set later than the setting lagna of
the true planet. Hence, there is an inversion in the addition and subtraction.
This is all the difference (for this case).
When the southern r
asi-k
u.ta is raised from the horizon, the planet will be
raised when the viks.epa is to the south, and will be lowered when the viks.epa
is to the north. Hence, in this case, the nature of addition and subtraction
will be opposite to that stated when the northern r
asi-k
u.ta is raised. This
is the only difference (for this case).
Now, when the dr.kks.epa is south, the northern r
asi-k
u.ta would be raised,
and, when it is north, the southern (r
asi-k
u.t a will be raised). Hence, if
the direction of the viks.epa and the dr.kks.epa happen to be the same, the
darsana-sam
ara-phala should be added to the planet when it rises. If the
. sk
directions are different, it is to be subtracted. At setting, (all this) is in the
reverse.

14.3

Planetary visibility

Now, we find difference in the k


ala-lagna-s corresponding to the rising of the
planet and of the Sun in minutes. It is (empirically) found that there is a
critical value exceeding which the planet would be visible and below which
the planet is not visible. The position and the rising of the planet based on
this will be stated later. The method for obtaining the madhya-lagna of the
planet with viks.epa at the noon is also similar. Here, the difference is that
computations have to be done with that dr.kks.epa which is derived without
taking the latitude into account. The reason for this is that the north-south
circle is the same for both places with latitude and without latitude. Thus
has been stated the visibility correction.

Chapter 15
Elevation of the Moons Cusps
15.1

The second true hypotenuse of the Sun and


the Moon

Now is stated the (computation of) the elevation of the cusps of the Moon.
For this, first compute the second true hypotenuse (dvitya-sphut.a-karn.a) of
the Sun and the Moon. Apply also the second true correction (dvitya ipati, author of)
sphut.a-sam
ara) for the Moon. Here, the view of (Sr
. sk
Siddh
antasekhara is that when the radius of the ucca and nca circles have
been ascertained, a correction has to be applied to them. The view of
Mu
njala, author of Laghum
anasa is that the antya-phala of the Moon is
to be multiplied by Moons manda-karn. a and five and divided by trijy
a.
These two views are worth consideration. Then, (for the Moon), compute
the dr.kkarn.a and apply the corrections of bh
u-pr.s..tha and nati. Then compute the nati for the Sun. Compute and apply the correction of lambana for
both the Sun and the Moon. Ascertain also the distance, at the required
time, between the centres of the solar and lunar spheres.

15.2

Distance between the orbs of the Sun and


Moon

Now, at a time when there is no nati or viks.epa, compute the Rsine and
Rversine of the difference in the sphut.a-s; square them, add them together

15.2 Distance between the orbs of the Sun and Moon

615

and derive the root of the sum. The result will be the samasta-jy
a (complete
chord of the arc) on the circle which has the observer as the centre and whose
circumference passes through (the centres of) the two orbs.
Here, in the matter of ascertaining the distance between the two orbs: For
the sake of convenience, conceive the ecliptic as the prime vertical of the
observer, touching the zenith and lying east-west. Conceive of the Sun at
the zenith. Conceive the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta passing through the Sun as the
north-south circle. A little away, place the Moon and passing through the
Moon conceive of a r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Conceive also of two lines from the centre
of the circle, one passing through the Sun, and the other passing through the
Moon. It will be seen that the line drawn through the Sun is vertical and
that passing through the Moon will be a little inclined to it. Here, consider
that (segment) which has its tip at the meeting place of the candra-r
asi-k
u.t avr.tta and apakrama-vr.tta and the foot on the vertical line. This would be the
bhuj
a-jy
a, the half chord of the part of the arc on the apakrama-vr.tta cutoff by the two r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta-s. The Rversine (sara) would be the distance
from the foot of the above to the location on the vertical circle where the
Sun is situated. The root of the sum of the squares of these two is the full
chord of the distance between the two orbs. When this is halved and the arc
thereof is doubled, the result will be the arc of the difference between the
two orbs, when there is no nati or viks.epa.
When, however, the Moon has a viks.epa on the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta, then the base
of the viks.epa-jy
a will meet the candra-s
utra at a point lower to the Moon by
the measure of the viks.epa-sara. Then apply the rule of three: If the, bhuj
ajy
a is the difference between the tip of the candra-s
utra and the vertical line,
then what would be the distance between the base of the viks.epa-jy
a and
the vertical line. This rule of three would be: If the bhuj
a-jy
a is the distance
between the tip of the candra-s
utra to the vertical line, then what will it
be for a distance less by the Rversine of the viks.epa. Or, one might do the
rule of three using the Rversine of the viks.epa and subtract the result from
the bhuj
a-jy
a. Now, the bhuj
a-jy
a-s derived by subtracting the square of the
viks.epa-sara-phala from the square of the ks.epa-sara and finding the root

616

15. Elevation of the Moons Cusps

would be equal to the vertical distance between the bhuj


a-jy
a which touches
the tip of the candra-s
utra and the bhuj
a-jy
a which touches the foot of the
viks.epa. Add this distance to the Rversine of the difference between the true
positions. The result will be the distance between the Sun and the foot of
the bhuj
a-jy
a which touches the foot of the viks.epa.
However, now, the sara would be a little longer, and the bhuj
a-jy
a would
be a bit shorter. The root of the sums of the squares of these two will be
the line from the Sun to the foot of the viks.epa-jy
a. If to the square of this,
the square of the viks.epa is added and the root of the sum found, it will
be the full chord of the difference between the orbs. When there is nati for
the Sun, then assume that it has deflected from the zenith along the northsouth circle. There, from the sara of the difference of the true longitudes,
the nati-sara of the Sun has to be subtracted. The remainder would be the
portion of the vertical line between the foot of the nati-jy
a of the Sun and
the foot of the bhuj
a-jy
alessviks.epa-sara. This would also be the sara of
the difference between the true positions less the nati-sara of the Sun plus
the kot.i-phala of the Moons ks.epa-sara. This would be one r
asi (the first
quantity). The bhuj
a-jy
a of the difference between the true positions will
also be one r
asi.
If the Sun and the Moon move on the same side of the ecliptic the difference
in their nati-s is to be taken and if (they move) on the two sides, the sum
of the nati-s should be taken. This will be one r
asi. The only distinction is
that, here, the bhuj
a-jy
a and sara of the difference in the sphut.a-s should be
conceived straight from that planet which has the smaller nati. By adding
up the squares of all these three (quantities) and finding the root of the sum,
the full chord of the difference in the orbs would be obtaind. This is the case
when the difference of the true planets is less than three r
asi-s.
When it is more (than three r
asi-s) also, the ecliptic is to be conceived as
follows: The Sun and the Moon are to be conceived on the two sides of
the zenith, equally removed from it, since at that time there is no nati for
both. The distance between the orbs would be double the half-jy
a of half
the difference between the true longitudes when there is no nati for both.

15.2 Distance between the orbs of the Sun and Moon

617

Now, the Rsines of half the difference in the true longitudes are the distances
from the points of contact of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the ecliptic to the vertical line. Here, subtract the bhuj
a-jy
a-phala derived from the respective
nati-sara-s from the respective halves. The results would be the respective
distances from the foot of the nati-jy
a to the vertical line. Here, too, they
would have touched the vertical line along its verticality according to the
magnitude of the nati.
Now, calculate the distance between the feet of the bhuj
a-jy
a in the vertical
line. That will be the kot.i-phala of the sara of the nati, which is, the vertical
length of this sara. But the difference between the kot.i-phala-s of the two
sara-s is the vertical distance between the feet of the two bhuj
a-jy
a-s. This
is a r
asi. When the bhuj
a-phala of the respective nati-sara-s are subtracted
from the jy
a-s of half the difference of the true longitudes: the remainders
would be the bhuj
a-jy
a-s of the difference of the true longitudes. The sum
of these two is the second r
asi. The difference between the nati-s or their
sums forms the third r
asi. The root of the sum of squares of these is the full
chord of the difference between the orbs. The sum or difference of the nati-s
is the north-south distance between the Sun and the Moon. The nati-phala
subtracted from the sum of the antar
ardha-jy
a-s will be the distance in the
east-west. The sum of half of the Rcosines of the nati and sara is the updown difference. The root of the sum of the squares of these three is the full
chord of the difference between the orbs. Thus has been stated the difference
between the orbs when the difference between the true longitudes is more
than three r
asi-s. The same procedure will apply also for the derivation of
the difference of the orbs in computation of eclipses.

Chapter 8
Computation of Planets
8.1

Planetary motion

In Indian astronomical texts, as a first approximation, the planets are taken


to move uniformly along different circular orbits; the linear velocity of all
the planets is taken to be a constant. In other words, if Rp be the radius of
the planetary orbit (usually given in yojan
a-s), and Tp be the sidereal time
period, then
Rp
= C,
Tp

(8.1)

where C is a constant. Given C, the radius of the planetary orbit is determined, if the time period of a planet is known. The term yuga-bhagan.a
refers to the number of complete revolutions made by the planet in a caturyuga consisting of 43,20,000 years. This period is also called a Mah
a-yuga
and consists of four parts namely Kr.ta-yuga, Tret
a-yuga, Dv
apara-yuga and
Kali-yuga.
The centre of the planetary orbit is not the centre of the Earth. As seen by
an observer on the surface of the Earth, there are two types of motion for the
planets: (i) the proper motion, which is eastward due to the motion of the
planet in its own orbit with respect to the stars, and (ii) the diurnal motion,
the uniform westward motion of all celestial objects, as seen from the Earth.
The proper motion is discussed in this chapter, whereas the diurnal motion
is considered in a later chapter1 . The true planet should be computed with
respect to the observer with the first point of Aries (Mes.a
di) as the reference
point.

Chapter 11 primarily deals with the diurnal problems.

8. Computation of Planets

Zodiacal celestial sphere

The terms bha and gola mean stars and sphere respectively. Hence, bhagola
refers to the sphere dotted with stars. In modern terminology, it is called
the celestial sphere. At this stage, the centre of the zodiacal celestial sphere
is stated to be the centre of the Earth. Any finer distinction will be dealt
with later.
Following this, two different conceptions are proposed for perceiving the motion of the planets. In modern terminology they are known as the eccentric
and the epicycle models.

8.3

Motion of planets: Eccentric model

To start with, the computation of true positions of the Sun and Moon,
which involve just the manda-sam
ara (equation of centre) is discussed. In
. sk
Figure 8.1a, the planet at P is conceived to be moving on an eccentric circle
(pratiman. d.ala). The centre of the pratiman. d.ala is O , and the centre of the
zodiacal sphere (bhagola-madhya) is O. The point O is located from O along
the direction of the mandocca, which is the apogee (for Sun and Moon) or
aphelion (for other planets) in modern terminology. O is moving on a circle
called manda-vr.tta which is a small circle centred around O.2
It is further conceived that as O moves on the circle around, it carries the
pratiman. d.ala along with it also. In other words, even if the planet does
not move on its own on the pratiman.d.ala it has motion with respect to the
bhagola-madhya due to the motion of the mandocca. As the Text notes, this
is like the motion of persons travelling in a vehicle.
In Figure 8.1a, represents the direction of the fixed star which is taken
as the reference point for the measurement of the nirayan.a longitude of
the planet. O and O are the centres of the manda-vr.tta and pratiman. d.ala
respectively. The two lines N O S and EO W passing through O , and per2

The word vr.tta means circle. With the adjective manda added to it, the word mandavr.tta suggests that this circle plays a key role in the manda-sam
ara. The same circle is

also called manda-ncocca-vr.tta for reasons explained in the next section.

Motion of planets: Epicyclic model

As suggested by the title, this model explains the irregularities in the planetary motion by considering an epicycle instead of an eccentric circle discussed
in the previous section. Apart from explaining the epicyclic model, the Text
also establishes the equivalence of the two models.

Figure 8.1b: The epicyclic model of planetary motion.

In Figure 8.1b, the deferent circle called kaks.y


a-vr.tta is the circle centred
around O, with a radius equal to the radius of the pratiman. d.ala described
earlier. The mean planet P0 moves on this circle with mean uniform velocity.
Around P0 we draw a circle whose radius is the same as the radius of the
manda-vr.tta described earlier. Here it is called the manda-ncocca-vr.tta.3
At any given instant of time, the actual planet P is located on the mandancocca-vr.tta by drawing a line from P0 along the direction of mandocca.
The point of intersection of this line with the manda-ncocca-vr.tta is the
true position of the planet. In fact, it can be easily seen that this point
happens to be the point of intersection of the pratiman. d.ala and the mandancocca-vr.tta centered around the mean planet on the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Thus we
see the equivalence of the two models.

The adjective ncocca is given to this vr.tta because, in this conception, it moves from
ucca to nca on the deferent circle along with the mean planet P0 . The other adjective
manda is to suggest that this circle plays a crucial role in the explanation of the mandasam
ara.

8.5 The position of Ucca

8.5

625

The position of Ucca

The term ucca or tunga


means peak. With reference to planetary motion,
this refers to the direction of apogee/aphelion of the planet. This is because
it is along this direction that the distance of the true planet from the centre
of the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala becomes maximum.
The direction of ucca varies from planet to planet. It may be noted that
the true planet P is always at the intersection of manda-ncocca-vr.tta and
pratiman.d.ala, in fact at that intersection which is close to the ucca or in the
ucca region. The portion above the north-south line of the pratiman.d.ala (see
Figure 8.2) is the ucca region.

8.6

Ucca, Madhyama and Sphut.a

When the ucca and madhya coincide, that is, the longitude of madhya is the
same as that of the ucca, the centres of kaks.y
a-man.d.ala, pratiman. d.ala, and
the two ucca-nca-vr.tta-s are on the same straight line, namely p
urv
apararekh
a (east-west line). This is depicted in Figure 8.2.
Then the sphut.a-graha (true planet) is the same as the madhyama-graha
= OP
0 . When the madhya moves away from the
(mean planet). OP
ucca, the true planet begins to differ from the mean planet.

8.7

Computation of true Sun

In the case of the Sun, it is noted that the mandocca moves so slowly (actually
a few seconds of arc per century) that its motion can be neglected. The Text
then gives a detailed description of how to find the difference between the
true planet (sphut.a) and the mean planet (madhyama).
In Figure 8.3, when the madhyama is at the east point E or the west point W ,
the true planet is at E or W and there is no difference between madhyama
and sphut.a (mean and the true longitudes). When the mean planet is at

N N = N on the karn.a-vr.tta is the difference between the sphut.a N
and the madhyama N . Clearly, at this point,
KN sin N = r,

(8.3)

where r is the radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta (epicycle). The sphut.a is less


than the madhyama in this position. Similarly, when the planet is at S ,
the difference between sphut.a and madhyama is given by the same relation.
However, the sphut.a will now be more than madhyama. When the planet is
at E and W , the sphut.a and madhyama coincide. The procedure to find
the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta is given in the next section.

8. Computation of Planets

Draw the perpendicular P Q from P to OX. Then, it is seen that


P Q = K sin = r sin A,

(8.6)

where K = OP is the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta when madhya is at P0 .


Similarly draw the perpendiculars P0 M0 and P M from P0 and P on OE.
Then, it is seen that

P M = K sin(P OE)
= P0 M0 = R sin(P0 OE).

(8.7)

In other words,
K sin (sphut.a ucca) = R sin (madhyama ucca).

(8.8)

Both these prescriptions (8.6) and (8.8) are given in the text.

8.8

Computation of the Karn.a

Karn.a refers to the hypotenuse drawn from the centre of the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala
to the planet on the pratiman.d.ala (OP , in Figure 8.3). Let the radius of the
kaks.y
a-vr.tta (which is also the radius of the pratiman. d.ala) be R, and the
radius of the ucca-nca-vr.tta be r. The radius of the karn.a-vr.tta denoted by
K is to be determined. In Figure 8.4, OPi (i = 1 . . . 4) are the radii of the
karn.a-vr.tta-s corresponding to the positions of the planet at Pi . From the
planet at Pi (i = 1 . . . 4) on the pratiman. d.ala, we drop the perpendicular
Pi Bi on the ucca-nca-s
utra. Measuring with respect to O , O Pi represent
the longitude of the madhya (M ) and O B1 that of the ucca (U ). Then,
Bi = madhya ucca
Pi O
= M U,

(8.9)

when the planet is to the east (upper portion) of the north-south line of the
pratiman. d.ala.
When the planet is to the west (lower portion) of the north-south line of the
pratiman. d.ala, then
Bi = 180 (M U ).

for deriving the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta. The sines are given by
Pi Bi = R sin(M U ),

(8.11)

(i = 1 . . . 4), as O Pi = R. The cosine of the hypotenuse, Bi O, called the


karn.a-vr.tta-kot.i (written as Kk henceforth) is determined thus:
1. When the planet is at P1 , above (to the east of) the mandocca-ncavr.tta (called simply as ucca-nca-vr.tta for convenience hereafter),
Kk = B1 O
= B1 O + O O
= R cos(M U ) + r.

(8.12)

2. When the planet is at P2 , below the ucca-nca-vr.tta,


Kk = B2 O
= B2 O O O
B2 ) r
= R cos(P2 O

= |R cos(M U )| r.

(8.13)

3. When the planet is at P3 , such that B3 , the base of the Rsine, is within
the ucca-nca-vr.tta and above its north-south line,
Kk = B3 O
= OO B3 O

= r R cos(P3 O

= r |R cos(M U )|.

(8.14)

and below its north-south line,
Kk = B4 O
= B4 O O O
B4 ) r
= R cos(P4 O

= |R cos(M U )| r.

(8.15)

Now, the radius of the hypotenuse circle (karn.a-vr.tta) K is given by

K=

p
(bhuj
ajy
a)2 + (karn.a-vr.tta-kot.i)2 .

Note: All the four cases above can be expressed in terms of a single formula
by taking the signs of sine and cosine into account, and denoting the radius
of the pratiman. d.ala by R, as follows:
q
R2 sin2 (M U ) + [R cos(M U ) + r]2
K =
p
=
R2 + r 2 + 2rR cos(M U ).
(8.16)
The above expression is valid even when the planet P is to the south, that
is to the right of ucca-nca-s
utra in Figure 8.4.

8.8 Computation of the Karn.a

631

At this point, the Text draws attention to the important feature of the
manda-correction that the dimension of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta r is assumed
to increase and decrease in the same manner as manda-karn.a K. The mean
radius of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta ro tabulated in texts corresponds to the
radius R of the pratiman.d.ala (or the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala), usually taken to be
3438 . However, the mean and the actual radii are related by
r0
r
=
= C,
K
R

(8.17)

where C is a constant.4 This will ensure that while calculating the mandacorrection by using (8.6), we need to know only the mean values of the radius
of the epicycle r0 and the radius of the pratiman. d.ala R = 3438 , because
sin =

r
r0
sin(M U ) =
sin(M U ).
K
R

(8.18)

Note: To obtain the actual values of r or K in terms of the minutes of


arc of the pratiman. d.ala, usually a process of iteration avises.a-karma is employed which is outlined in all standard texts of Indian Astronomy starting
from Mah
abh
askarya (629 AD) to Tantrasangraha

(1500 AD).5 Here, we


shall briefly summarise this process of iteration and refer the reader to the
detailed discussion in K. S. Shuklas translation of Mah
abh
askarya6 for further details.
In Figure 8.5, P0 is the mean planet moving in the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala with O
as the centre, and E is the direction of mandocca. Draw a circle of radius r0
with P0 as centre. Let P1 be the point on this circle such that P0 P1 is in the
direction of mandocca (parallel to OE ). Let O be a point on the line OE ,
such that OO = r0 . Join P1 O and let that line meet kaks.y
a-man.d.ala at Q.
Extend OQ and P0 P1 so as to meet at P . The true planet is located at P .
Then, it can be shown that, OP = K and P0 P = r are the actual mandakarn.a and the corresponding (true) radius of the epicycle as will result by
the process of successive iteration which is described below. Since P1 O is
parallel to P0 O, the triangles OP0 P and QO O are similar and we have

The process of successive iteration to obtain K is essentially the following.
In triangle OP1 P0 , with the angle P1 P0 O = 180 (M U ), the first approximation to the karn.a (sakr.t-karn.a) K1 = OP1 and the mean epicycle
radius r0 = P1 P0 , are related by
q
K1 = R2 + r02 + 2r0 R cos(M U ).
(8.20)
In the RHS of (8.20), we replace r0 by the next approximation to the radius
of the epicycle

(8.21)
r1 = K1 ,

and obtain the next approximation to the karn.a
q

and so on. This process is iterated till Ki and Ki+1 become indistinguishable,
and that will be the avisis..ta-karn.a K,7 which is related to the corresponding
epicycle radius r as in (8.21) by
r=

r0
K.
R

(8.23)

It can actually be shown8 that the sequence K1 , K2 , K3 , . . . indeed converges and the limit is OP = K. Also, from the triangle OP0 P it follows
that K and r are also related by
p
(8.24)
K = R2 + r 2 + 2rR cos(M U ).

8.9

Alternative method for the Karn.a

Here, another approach for the determination of karn.a (hypotenuse) is presented, primarily using the ucca-nca-vr.tta (epicycle). This can be understood with the help of Figure 8.6.
In fact, two cases are considered here: (i) the foot of the bhuj
a-phala of
the planet on the pratiman. d.ala lies outside the circumference of the kaks.y
avr.tta, and (ii) the foot of the bhuj
a-phala is inside the circumference of the
kaks.y
a-vr.tta.9
1. Case 1: Planet at P1
Considering the triangle P1 B1 M1 , the sine and the cosine are given by
bhuj
a-phala = P1 B1 = r sin(M U ),

kot.i-phala = B1 M1 = r cos(M U ).

(8.25)

The term vises.a means distinction. Hence, avises.a is without distinction. Therefore
the term avisis..ta-karn.a refers to that karn.a obtained after doing a series of iterations such
that the successive values of the karn.a do not differ from each other.
8
vide K. S. Shukla cited above in footnote 6.
9
These also correspond to the situations when the planet is located in the pratiman.d.ala
to the east or west of the north-south line passing through the centre of the pratiman.d.ala.
The Text seems to wrongly suggest that these cases also correspond to the situations when
the planet, located in the pratiman.d.ala, lies outside or inside the kaks.y
a-man.d.ala. This
error, however, is not made in the next section, 8.10, where only the location of the foot
of the bhuj
a-phala is considered.

2. Case 2: Planet at P2

Considering the triangle P2 B2 M2 , the sine and the cosine are given by
bhuj
a-phala = P2 B2 = r sin(M U )

kot.i-phala = B2 M2 = |r cos(M U )|
= r cos(M U ),

(8.28)

as 90o < M U < 180o . Now the distance between the centre O and

karn.a = OP2

In either case, (8.27) or (8.30) lead to the same expression for the karn.a,
viz.,
q
K =
r 2 sin2 (M U ) + {R + r cos(M U )}2
p
R2 + r 2 + 2rR cos(M U ),

which is the same as the formula (8.24) in the last section. From K, we can
find how much the planet has moved on the hypotenuse circle by (8.18).

8.10

Viparta-karn.a : Inverse hypotenuse

It appears that it was the celebrated Madhava (c.1320-1400) who gave an


exact formula for evaluating the true manda-karn.a, without employing the
iterative process. As noted in Tantrasangraha

II.44, Madhava expressed the


true manda-karn.a in terms of the so called viparta-karn.a or inverse hypotenuse. The expression for viparta-karn.a is based on the inverse relation
between the karn.a and radius, which is being dealt with first. Madhavas
expression for the avisis..ta-manda-karn.a will be discussed later towards the
end of the section 8.12.
Here, the aim is to obtain R from K. That is the radius of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta
when the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta is taken to be trijy
a (= 3438 ). As in the
previous section, we consider two cases (refer to Figure 8.6).

636

8. Computation of Planets

1. Case 1: Planet is at P1 and B1 , the base of bhuj


a-phala, is outside
the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Now, the radius of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta is
OM1 = OB1 B1 M1

= OB1 kot.i-phala,

(8.32)

where OB1 is the distance between the kaks.y


a-kendra and the base of
the bhuj
a-phala and is given by
q
a-phala2 .
(8.33)
OB1 = K 2 bhuj
2. Case 2: Planet is at P2 and B2 , the base of bhuj
a-phala, is inside the
kaks.y
a-vr.tta. Now, the radius of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta is
OM2 = OB2 + B2 M2
= OB2 + kot.i-phala,

(8.34)

where OB2 is the distance between the kaks.y


a-kendra and the base of
the bhuj
a-phala and is given by
q
OB2 = K 2 bhuj
a-phala2 .
(8.35)
In both the cases we get
q
R = K 2 r 2 sin2 (M U ) r cos(M U ).

8.11

(8.36)

Another method for Viparta-karn.a

Here, another method for determining the trijy


a from the karn.a is described.
We explain this with the help of Figure 8.7. In this, and the subsequent
section, we use P and U to represent the longitude of the planet and the
ucca respectively. Consider the case when B1 , the base of the bhuj
ajy
a, is
outside the ucca-nca-vr.tta and to the east of it (as is the case when the
planet is at P1 ). The angle
1 = sphut.a ucca
U OP
= P U,

(8.37)

8.11 Another method for Viparta-karn.a

637

is the difference between the longitudes of the mandocca and the planet.
Also,
P1 B1 = K sin(P U )

OB1 = K cos(P U )

O B1 = OB1 OO

= K cos(P U ) r.

(8.38)

Then the radius of the pratiman. d.ala/kaks.y


a-vr.tta is

O P1 = R =

K 2 sin(P U )2 + (K cos(P U ) r)2 .

O,
O B3 = r K cos(P U ),
(8.40)

638

8. Computation of Planets

and the expression for R is same as above. In both cases, P U < 90 .


Similarly when B2 , the base of the bhuj
ajy
a, is outside the ucca-nca-vr.tta
and to the west of it (as is the case when the planet is at P2 ),
q
P2 B2 2 + O B22
R = O P2 =
q
=
P2 B22 + (O O + OB2 )2
1

= [K 2 sin2 (P U ) + (r + |K cos(P U )|)2 ] 2 .

(8.41)

It is easy to see that this is also the case when the base B4 is inside the
ucca-nca-vr.tta and west of O. In both these cases cos(P U ) is negative,
as 90o P U < 180o . Hence, taking the sign of cos(P U ) into account,
we get in all cases,
1

R = [K 2 sin2 (P U ) + (K cos(P U ) r)2 ] 2


1

= [K 2 + r 2 2rK cos(P U )] 2 .

8.12

(8.42)

Still another method for Viparta-karn.a

There is yet another method for finding the radius of the pratiman.d.ala in
terms of the karn.a. We explain this with reference to Figure 8.7. Here, C1
and C2 are the feet of the perpendiculars from the centre of the pratiman. d.ala
O to the line joining the planet and the centre of kaks.y
a-man.d.ala (OP1 and
OP2 ). In the Text, the planets at P1 and P2 are referred to as lying in the
ucca and nca regions of the pratiman.d.ala. The phrase ucca and nca regions
used in this context, have to be understood as referring to the portions above
and below the north-south line of the pratiman.d.ala.
1. The planet is at P1 (ucca region).
The radius of the pratiman.d.ala is
p
R = O P1 = (O C1 )2 + (P1 C1 )2 .

We need to calculate O C1 and P1 C1 , which are given by


O C1 = doh.phala = r sin(P U ),

(8.43)

8.12 Still another method for Viparta-karn.a

639

and
OC1 = kot.i-phala = r cos(P U ).

In the figure,

P1 C1 = OP1 OC1

= K r cos(P U ).

(8.44)

Hence, (8.43) reduces to


q
R = r 2 sin2 (P U ) + {K r cos(P U )}2 .

(8.45)

The radius of the pratiman. d.ala is


p
R = O P2 = (O C2 )2 + (P2 C2 )2 .

(8.46)

2. The planet is at P2 (nca region).

We need to calculate O C2 and P2 C2 , which are given by


2)
O C2 = doh.phala = r sin(O OC
2)
= r sin(P2 OB
and

= r sin(P U ),
2)
OC2 = kot.i-phala = r cos(O OC
2)
= r cos(P2 OB
= |r cos(P U )|.

(8.47)

In the figure,
P2 C2 = OP2 + OC2
= K + |r cos(P U )|.

(8.48)

Hence, (8.46) reduces to


1

R = [r 2 sin2 (P U ) + {K + |r cos(P U )|}2 ] 2 .

(8.49)

In (8.49), cos(P U ) is negative, as 90o P U 180o . Taking the


sign of cos(P U ) into account, in all cases, the expression for trijy
a
is
1

R = [r 2 sin2 (P U ) + {K r cos(P U )}2 ] 2


1

= [K 2 + r 2 2rK cos(P U )] 2 ,

which is the same as (8.42).

(8.50)

640

8. Computation of Planets

Now, the avisis.ta-manda-karn. a is to be determined in terms of the minutes


of arc of the pratiman. d.ala. The radius of the karn.a-vr.tta is equal to the
trijy
a R, when measured in the minutes of arc of karn.a-vr.tta (i.e., its own

of the karn.a-vr.tta) by the viparta-karn.a Rv , which is obtained by setting
K = R and r = r0 in (8.36) and (8.42), where r0 is the mean radius of the
manda-ncocca-vr.tta :

(8.51)
Rv =

and

Rv

= [R2 + r02 2r0 R cos(P U )] 2 .

(8.52)

By the rule of three: Rv is the radius of the pratiman.d.ala when the radius
of the karn.a-vr.tta is trijy
a or R. Now when the radius of the pratiman. d.ala
is R, then the radius of the karn.a-vr.tta K will be given by

K =

Note: We may briefly indicate the geometrical representation of the avisis..tamanda-karn.a and the viparta-karn.a with reference to Figure 8.5 on page 632.
Here, T is a point on the line OP0 , such that the line QT is parallel to P0 P1 .
Then, it can be easily seen that OT will be the viparta-karn.a Rv . Now, in

OT = [R2 + r02 2Rr0 cos(P U )] 2 ,

a R, A and the karn.a K which can be found using any of the
sphut.a is determined. This is
methods described earlier. Adding ucca to B,
the manda-sphut.a, that is the mean planet to which the equation of centre
is added to get the sphut.a-graha.
On the other hand, if the sphut.a is known, the above relation (8.58) can be
used to obtain the manda-karn.a; and from that the radius of the epicycle
can also be determined using (8.23).
Here, it is again reiterated that the radius of the epicycle (ucca-nca-vr.tta),
r, increases or decreases as the manda-karn.a K, that is, Kr is constant. It
is noted that this simplifies the calculation of P M , as it can be simply
determined from the relation
K sin(M P ) = r sin(madhya ucca)
= r sin(M U ).

(8.59)

If r0 is the mean radius of the epicycle, or the radius of the epicycle in terms
of the minutes of arc of the pratiman. d.ala, then
r0

sin(M U ) =
sin(M U ).
(8.60)
sin(M P ) =

Thus, in calculating the manda-correction, there is no need to compute the
manda-karn.a K, or the true epicycle radius r.
It is further noted that there is a difference between the manda and sghra
procedures. As will be discussed in the next section, in sghra correction, the
radius of the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta is taken to be a constant, and not varying
with the sghra-karn. a.

For the Sun and the Moon, the sphut.a obtained above is itself the true
planet. For the planets (Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury and Venus), another correction has to be applied to find the true planet which involves
the use of a sghrocca. This would be equivalent to the determination of
the true geocentric planet called the sghra-sphut. a from the true heliocentric planet called the manda-sphut. a. We first, delineate the procedure given
in the Text.

8. Computation of Planets

from the mean planet, madhyama-graha. Thus it may be noted that, in the
computation of the sghra-sphut.a, the sghrocca and the manda-karn.a-vr.tta
play the same roles as the mandocca and the pratiman.d.ala did in the computation of the manda-sphut.a. The sghra-karn.a Ks = OP can be determined
in terms of the manda-karn.a, SP = K, or the trijy
a R. Apart from the
similarities, there is one difference, as was pointed out in the previous section. In manda-correction, the radius of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta r varies. It
increases or decreases in the same way as the manda-karn.a K. In the sghra
correction, the radius of the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta rs , does not vary with the
sghra-karn.a. To start with, both the mean radius r0 of the manda-ncoccavr.tta and the radius rs of the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta are specified in the measure
of the pratiman. d.ala radius, being trijy
a or R = 3438 .
We first define the basic quantities/angles which are used in the later discussion, with reference to Figure 8.9:

madhyama-graha = UP,
manda-karn.a = SP = K,
= Ms .
manda-sphut.a = SP

(8.61)

It is this manda-sphut.a, (the last of the above), which is determined by the


manda-sam
ara discussed in the sections 8.7 and 8.13. The sghra-sphut.a,
. sk
to be determined, is defined by

sghra-sphut.a = P = OP.

(8.62)

In connection with this, two more quantities are defined, namely

and

sghr
antyaphala = OS = rs ,
= S.
sghrocca = OS

(8.63)

The former is the radius of the circle in which sghrocca moves, and the latter
is the longitude of sghrocca. Now, the sghra-kendra is given by,
sghra-kendra = manda-sphut. a sghrocca
OS

(8.64)

8.14 The S

The Rsine of the above is called sghra-kendra-jy


a. It is given by

sghra-kendra-jy
a = P B = P S sin P SB
= K sin(Ms S).

(8.65)

Similarly, the kot.ijy


a is given by

sghra-kendra-kot. ijy
a = SB = P S cos P SB
= K cos(Ms S).

(8.66)

The jy
a and the kot.i above are defined in the measure of the manda-karn.a
K. Now, the bhuj
a-phala and kot.i-phala will be defined in the measure of
the pratiman. d.ala (i.e., taking R = 3438 ) as follows:

sghra-bhuj
a-phala = OC = OS sin OSC

= OS sin P SB
and

= rs sin(Ms S),

sghra-kot.i-phala = SC = OS cos OSC

= OS cos P SB

(8.67)

= rs cos(Ms S).

(8.68)

Now the sghra-karn.a is given by


Ks = OP

This sghra-karn.a is in the measure of the pratiman. d.ala. That is, the expression for Ks has been obtained under the assumption that R is taken to
be trijy
a (= 3438 ) and K is the calculated value of manda-karn.a (could be
less than or greater than trijy
a). However, when the manda-karn. a is itself
taken to be trijy

Also, it can be easily seen that


OP C = manda-sphut.a sghra-sphut. a

OP sin(OP C) = OC.

(8.77)

Using (8.67) in the RHS, the above equation reduces to


Ks sin(Ms P) = rs sin(Ms S).

(8.78)

Multiplying by trijy
a and dividing by karn.a, we get
R sin(Ms P) =

R rs sin(Ms S)
.
Ks

(8.79)

From this, the arc Ms P is found. When this is subtracted from the
manda-sphut.a Ms , the result will be the sghra-sphut.a, P.
It is again emphasized that one has to be careful about the measure employed. In the two alternative ways of finding the sghra-sphut. a P, if the
sghra-bhuj
a-jy
a K sin(Ms S) and the sghra-bhuj
a-phala rs sin(Ms S)
are in the measure of manda-karn.a or pratiman. d.ala, the divisor Ks (sghrakarn.a) should also be in the same measure.
A geometrical summary of finding the manda-sphut.a/sghra-sphut. a is then
provided. The motion of the planet on the pratiman. d.ala, whose centre is
the ucca, is known. From this, one should determine the motion of the
planet on the karn.a-vr.tta whose centre is the bhagola-madhya. Here the
pratiman.d.ala and karn.a-vr.tta are called the j
na
ta-bhoga-graha and j
neyabhoga-graha-vr.tta-s respectively. The terms j
na
ta and j
neya mean known
and to be known. Bhoga in this context means the arc covered. Hence,
j
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta refers to the circle in which the arc covered by the
planet is known, which is the pratiman.d.ala. Similarly, j
neya-bhoga-grahavr.tta refers to the circle in which the arc covered by the planet is to be
known. Obviously this is the karn.a-vr.tta. It could be sghra-karn.a-vr.tta or
manda-karn.a-vr.tta as the case may be. These two, along with the other
three vr.tta-s are shown in Figure 8.10.

The S

For Mercury and Venus, sghra-ncocca-vr.tta (sghra-vr.tta) is large and the


manda-karn.a-vr.tta is small. Hence, the sghra-vr.tta with its centre at the
centre of bhagola, is taken to be the kaks.y
a-vr.tta. On this, the sghrocca
(S) moves (see Figure 8.11). The j
na
ta-bhoga-graha-vr.tta is a circle with the
sghrocca as the centre, and on the circumference of this the planet moves
with the same speed as the manda-sphut.a. Here it is to be considered as the
ucca-nca-vr.tta. As we shall see later, this is essentially the manda-karn.avr.tta with its radius reduced from K to rs = K rRs . Also construct another
ucca-nca-vr.tta /j

a-vr.tta and touches
the planet. That is, it is the circle with OP as radius in Figure 8.11. We
now define the following:

radius is same as the radius of the kaks.y

The Text clearly notes the difference between the exterior planets, Mars,
Jupiter and Saturn and the interior planets Mercury and Venus. For the
former, the stated values of manda-vr.tta and sghra-vr.tta are in terms of
their pratiman.d.ala-s. For Mercury and Venus, since the sghra-vr.tta-s are
larger, the pratiman. d.ala is measured in terms of the (larger) sghra-vr.tta
and set out as the sghra-vr.tta.

652

8. Computation of Planets

Note:
The Text also notes that the procedure for finding the true planet for Mercury and Venus in Tantrasangraha

is different from that in other works.


For these planets, since the sghra-vr.tta-s are large, it is the pratiman. d.ala
which has been measured in terms of the minutes of this (sghra-vr.tta)
and set out as sghra-vr.tta in Tantrasangraha.

In the earlier texts, the


manda-vr.tta-s of Mercury and Venus are in the measure of the sghra-vr.tta.
In Tantrasangraha,

the manda-ncocca-vr.tta-s are in the measure of the


pratiman. d.ala. Though it is not stated here, it is implied that the mandasphut.a-ny
aya is wrong in the earlier texts, as the equation of centre is applied
to the a
ditya-madhyama (mean Sun), whereas it should be applied to the
mean planet (which is termed the sghrocca in earlier texts).
On the other hand, according to Tantrasangraha,

the equation of centre is applied to the mean planet (termed as such it is the mean heliocentric planet
in the modern technology) to find the manda-sphut.a (the true heliocentric
planet). Then the manda-karn.a (radius of the orbit of the manda-sphut.a)
is reduced by a factor of rRs , where rs is the sghra-antya-phala and R is the
trijy
a. This reduced manda-karn.a-vr.tta on which the manda-sphut.a moves
is centered around that mean Sun (sghrocca), which itself moves around
the bhagola-madhya in an orbit of radius R. With this, the true geocentric
planet is found. This is essentially the same as the standard planetary model
employed in modern astronomy since Kepler, (except that here the sghrocca
is the mean Sun, whereas it should be the true Sun), as the stated valued of
rs /R is equal to the ratio of the planet-Sun and Earth-Sun distances in the
modern picture.
It is noteworthy that the procedure for finding the true planet is essentially
the same for both the exterior and the interior planets. In both the cases,
the true heliocentric planet is found first from the mean heliocentric planet
with the manda-sphut.a-ny
aya, that is, by the application of what is called
the equation of centre in the modern terminology. Then the true geocentric
planet (sghra-sphut. a) is found taking the Sun as the sghrocca. The difference is that the orbit of the planet around the sghrocca is larger than the
orbit of the Sun around the Earth (sghra-vr.tta) for exterior planets, and
smaller for the interior planets. This is all as it should be.10

In the earlier sections, while discussing the procedure for finding the true
longitudes, the deflection of the planet from the ecliptic as it moves along
its orbit was not considered. A detailed discussion of it is taken up in this
section. Since the diurnal motion is not of any significance in this discussion,
the apakrama-man. d.ala (ecliptic) is taken as an exact vertical circle situated
east-west in the middle of the bhagola. This is the circle with the centre
of the Earth as the centre. This is divided into 12 r
asi-s. Considering the
two r

u.ta-s (poles of the ecliptic, which are the points of intersection of
all the r

constructed. These are shown in Figure 8.12. It may be noted that these

By construction, the sghra-vr.tta is in the plane of the apakrama-man. d.ala,


with its centre at the centre of the Earth. The size of the sghra-vr.tta will be
different for different planets. The manda-ncocca-vr.tta is a circle inclined
to the sghra-vr.tta, with its centre on the sghra-vr.tta, and intersecting the
apakrama-man. d.ala at the p

These are shown in Figure 8.13. The pratiman.d.ala and the manda-karn.avr.tta will be in the plane of manda-ncocca-vr.tta, which is inclined to the
plane of ecliptic. The planet P is on the manda-karn.a-vr.tta whose centre is
S and will have viks.epa (latitudinal deflection from the apakrama-man. d.ala).

It is precisely the above equation (8.96) that is given in the Text.


In Figure 8.14, let SS = P B, be perpendicular to the apakrama-mand. ala.
Viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta is the circle parallel to the sghra-vr.tta with S P = SB

an adjective to viks.epa to indicate the fact that the Earth is taken to be at
the centre of the bhagola and hence the viks.epa as seen from the Earth is the
same as the bhagola-viks.epa. Thus, we see that

Thus the angle is found from (8.96) and (8.100). This is the geocentric
latitude. Though the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta is smaller than the apakrama-vr.tta,
the angles are the same for the both, just as the hour-angle in the diurnal
circle is the same as in the equatorial circle.

The case when the sghra-vr.tta itself is inclined to the apakramaman.d.ala


Next, the more general case when the sghra-vr.tta itself is inclined to the
apakrama-man. d.ala is considered. This is a hypothetical case, as the sghravr.tta, the orbit of the Sun around the Earth, is stated to be in the plane of the
apakrama-man. d.ala. In Figure 8.16, let i and i be the inclinations of sghravr.tta with respect to the apakrama-mand. ala, and that of the manda-karn.avr.tta (with respect to the sghra-vr.tta) respectively. Let S be the sghrocca,
N the p
ata of the sghra-vr.tta (intersection point of sghra and apakramaman.d.ala-s). P is the manda-sphut.a-graha in the manda-karn.a-vr.tta with S
as the centre, and N , the p
ata of the manda-karn.a (intersection point of
manda-karn.a and the sghra-vr.tta plane). Here SC = OO and P B = SS .

Figure 8.16: The latitude of a planet when sghra-vr.tta itself is inclined to

Now, the viks.epa of the centre of the manda-karn.a-vr.tta (S), which lies on
the circumference of sghra-vr.tta, is given by
SC = OS sin
= OS sin i sin(S N )
= rs sin i sin(S N ).

(8.102)

This viks.epa is in the measure of the pratiman. d.ala, where rs is the radius
of the
antyaphala. Then, we need to
sghra-vr.tta which is also the sghr
2

find OS SC . This gives OC = O S which is equal to viks.epa-kot.i in
terms of the minutes of the arc of the pratiman. d.ala. The latitude of the
planet with reference to the sghrocca (point S in the sghra-vr.tta), called
the manda-karn.a-viks.epa, is
P B = SP sin
= SP sin i sin(P N )

= K sin i sin(P N ).

(8.103)

This is in the measure of the pratiman.d.ala, where K is the manda-karn.a. If


both CS and BP are north (of apakrama and sghra-vr.tta respectively), or
south, then the net viks.epa of the planet will be
vtot = SC + P B.

659

This case is represented in Figure 8.16. If one of them is north and other is
south, then the net viks.epa of the planet will be
vtot = SC P B.

(8.105)

When the sghra-vr.tta is also inclined to the apakrama-man. d.ala, we have


to find the radius of the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta of the sghrocca first, for finding the longitude of P . The radius of this is rs cos . We have to find the
mandakarn.a-viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta too. The sghra-bhuj
a-phala is determined using the first circle as the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta, and the second as the
pratiman.d.ala. This is applied to the manda-sphut. a to obtain the sghrasphut.a P .12
The Text mentions that it is only giving the procedure for the hypothetical
situation when the sghra-vr.tta happens to be inclined to the ecliptic not
that such a situation actually arises in practice. Then it gives a remarkable
example where the above general discussion may find application: namely,
when we seek to make computations with respect to an observer at the centre
of the Moon. The Text also makes a very perceptive remark that, then,
the Moons orbit is to be considered as the ucca-nca-vr.tta. The motion
with respect to the bhagola-madhya is determined from the position with
respect to the Moons centre. The Text also notes that we can use this
procedure to convert computations from a Moon-centric frame of reference
to the geocentric frame.

In this and the next few sections, the reverse problem of finding the mean
position from the true position of the planet is considered. First, the Sun

8. Computation of Planets

In (8.58), it was shown that


R sin(madhya ucca) = K sin(sphut.a ucca)
R sin(M U ) = K sin(P U ),

(8.106)

where R is trijy
a and K is the karn.a. Here, if the manda-karn.a K is known,
then we know (M U ) in terms of (P U ). If we add ucca to this we will
get the madhya. That is,
(M U ) + U = M.

(8.107)

Or, with reference to Figure 8.7 on page 637


1
O P1 C1 = B1 O P1 B1 OP

= madhya sphut.a.

(8.108)

Considering the triangle O OC1 , the b


ahu-phala is given by
O C1 = r sin (sphut.a ucca),
where r is the radius of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta. Considering the triangles
P1 O C1 and O OC1 , we have
R sin(M P ) = O C1 = r sin(P U ).

(8.109)

Here r should be in the measure of pratiman. d.ala. That is,


r = r0

K
,
R

(8.110)

where, r0 is the mean epicycle radius given in the Text. As before, if K is


known (madhya sphut.a) is determined. Adding sphut.a to this, we find the
madhyama-graha (mean planet).
Note: In both the above relations (8.106) and (8.110), the avisis..ta-mandakarn.a K is used which itself has to be determined. The method for determining this (when the manda-sphut.a is known) is given in Tantrasangraha

II. 46-47. It is based on first computing the viparta-karn. a, which can be


expressed in terms of the manda-sphut.a P, the ucca U , the mean epicycle
radius r0 and trijy
a R, by the relation given earlier (8.52):
1

Rv = [R2 + r02 2r0 R cos(P U )] 2 .


The manda-karn.a is then found from the relation K =

R2
Rv .

(8.111)

8.18 Another method for the mean from true Sun and Moon 661

8.18

Another method for the mean from true Sun

= r0 sin(M U ),

R sin(M P ) =

(8.112)

where r0 , the mean radius of the manda-ncocca-vr.tta, is of course a known


parameter. The madhya is obtained from this equation using an iterative
procedure. First, the sphut.a itself is taken to be the madhya in the RHS of
(8.112), and the madhya sphut.a is calculated. Adding sphut.a to this, we
get the new madhya. This is approximate. This is used in the RHS now,
and madhya sphut.a is again calculated. Adding sphut.a to this, the next
iterated value of madhya is found. The process is repeated. It is noteworthy
that here the avisis..ta-karn.a K does not come into the picture at all.

8. Computation of Planets

Another interesting iterative procedure for determining the madhya from


the sphut.a is described next. In Figure 8.17, O P = R, OP = K, OO = r,
= P U and U O P = M U . Hence,
U OP
OP O = (M U ) (P U ) = M P.

(8.113)

Considering the triangle OP O we have


O P
OO
OP

=

sin OP O
sin O OP
sin OO P

(8.114)

Therefore we have

and

R sin(M P ) = r sin(P U ),

K sin(M P ) = r sin(M U ).

(8.115)
(8.116)

From the above relations, we get


r sin(M U ) =

K
r sin(P U ).
R

(8.117)

Therefore,
r sin(M U ) r sin(P U ) =

(K R)
r sin(P U ).
R

(8.118)

Again, in the triangle OP O , the karn.a can be expressed in terms of the


sphut.a via the relation
1

K = {R2 r 2 sin2 (P U )} 2 + r cos(P U ).

(8.119)

Neglecting the term containing square of phala-varga (r 2 sin2 (P U )), we


get
K R + r cos(P U ).
(8.120)
Using the above in (8.118), we have
r sin(M U ) r sin(P U ) r cos(P U )

r sin(P U )
. (8.121)
R

If the true epicycle radius r is known (it can be found by computing the
karn.a K), then the above equation can be used to determine the mandakendra (M U ) and hence the madhyama. From (8.115) and (8.121), we
also obtain
r sin(M U ) r sin(P U ) r cos(P U )

R sin(M P )
. (8.122)
R

8.19 Calculation of the mean from true planet

As (M P ) is small, R sin(M P ) (M P ) in minutes. Therefore the


above equation reduces to
r sin(M U ) r sin(P U ) r cos(P U )

(M P )
in minutes. (8.123)
R

In the above equation, LHS is the bhuj


aphala-khan. d.a and (M P ) is the

(8.125)

It is further mentioned that bhuj


a-khan.d.a is according to kot.ijy
a. The mean
planet M is to be found iteratively from (8.123) as mentioned earlier. Equation (8.123) is an approximate relation. If the approximate value of M is
found by any method, that can be used in the RHS and M can be determined
iteratively from (8.123).

8.19

Calculation of the mean from true planet

The mean of all the planets can be obtained from their manda-sphut. a in
the same way as outlined above. The process of determining the mandasphut.a from sghra-sphut. a is indeed simpler. Considering the triangle OP S
in Figure 8.9 on page 643, we have the following relation
rs sin(P S) = K sin(Ms P).

(8.126)

Given that the longitude of sghrocca is known, it follows from the above
relation that if the sghra-sphut. a P, radius of the sghra-ncocca-vr.tta rs and
the manda-karn.a K are known, (Ms P) and hence Ms can be determined.
The term in the LHS of (8.126) is sghra-khan. d.a-bhuj
a-jy
a on sghra-ncoccavr.tta. This equation could be written as
R sin(Ms P) = R sin(P S)

K

(8.127)

664

8. Computation of Planets

Here it is noted that R is taken to be 80 in Tantrasangraha

and 360 in other


13
texts.
From this relation, Ms or manda-sphut.a on manda-karn. a-vr.tta is
obtained.
It is noted that while calculating manda-sphut.a from manda-kendra, the
karn.a K has to be found by avises.a-karma or iteration, but the karn.a does
not appear while calculating the bhuj
a-phala. When we want to calculate
madhyama from manda-sphut. a we do not have the simple relation as above,
and we have to either evaluate the avisis.ta-manda-karn.a K (in terms of the
sphut.a) or do iteration on the equation
r0 sin(M U ) = R sin(M P ),

(8.128)

where the unknown madhyama appears on both sides of the equation.


On the other hand, when sghra-bhuj
a-phala is calculated, we need to compute the karn.a Ks . But when we calculate manda-sphut.a from sghra-sphut. a
no iteration is required.
For deriving Ms from M , the karn.a is not required. We have
or

K sin(Ms M ) = r sin(M U )

R sin(Ms M ) = r0 sin(M U ),

(8.129)

as Kr = rR0 . It may be noted that though karn.a does not appear in the above
equation, when M is to be calculated from Ms , we need a avises.a-karma or
successive iteration process.
On the other hand, when P (sghra-sphut. a) is calculated from Ms , karn.a is
required. From the triangle OPS in Figure 8.9 on page 643, we have
Ks sin(P S) = K sin(Ms S).

(8.130)

But, for deriving Ms from P using


rs sin(P S) = K sin(Ms P),

(8.131)

no iteration is required. However, it is noted that using the above equation,


P can also be found by an avises.a process. That is, we need to take P = Ms
in LHS, and find Ms P and then P. Then, put the new value of P in
LHS, find Ms P, thus a new P and so on. Thus the sghra-sphut. a P can
be found by an avises.a process.
13

There is a complication that the manda-karn.a varies with the manda-kendra but the
text seems to imply that K in the RHS is replaced by R itself.

8.20 Computation of true planets without using Manda-karn.a 665

8.20

Computation of true planets without using


Manda-karn.a

The Text has so far clearly prescribed a two step process to compute the true
planet from the mean planet manda-sam
ara (which is essentially convert. sk
ing the mean heliocentric planet to the true heliocentric planet) followed by
sghra-sam
ara (converting heliocentric planet to geocentric planet). Here
. sk
the manda correction can be read-off from a table as, given the mean epicycle radius, the manda-phala is not a function of the manda-karn.a. But this
is not the case for sghra correction, for the sghra-phala depends not only
on the sghra-kendra, but also on the sghra-karn. a which (as we see from
(8.69)) depends on manda-karn.a, which in turn depends on manda-kendra.
Hence, given the radius of sghra-ncocca-vr.tta, sghra-phala cannot be read
off from a table as a function of sghra-kendra alone, as it also depends on
manda-karn.a and hence on the manda-kendra.
The Text presents an elaborate derivation showing that it is possible to
simulate, to some extent, the effect of manda-karn.a in sghra-phala by doing
a four-step process instead of the two-step precess discussed so far. For

the exterior planets, texts of the Aryabhat


abh
askarya
. a school from Mah
to Tantrasangraha

prescribe the following steps: (i) If M is the madhyama,


apply half-manda-phala to it to obtain M . (ii) Using M evaluate the sghraphala, where the sghra-karn.a is calculated as in (8.69), but with the mandakarn.a K replaced by the trijy
a R, and apply half of this sghra-phala to M

to obtain M . (iii) Using M evaluate the manda-phala and applying that to


M to obtain the manda-sphut. a Ms . (iv) Use the manda-sphut. a to calculate
the sghra-phala, where the sghra-karn. a is calculated with manda-karn.a
replaced by the trijy
a R, to obtain the sghra-sphut.a, the true planet P.
The Text outlines a derivation, which purports to show that under certain
approximations, there is no appreciable difference between the above sghrasphut.a, and the one obtained by calculating the sghra-phala with the mandakarn.a-dependent sghra-karn.a, as described earlier in section 8.14.
For the interior planets, Mercury and Venus, earlier texts such as Mah
abh
askarya prescribe a three-stage process: Application of half manda-phala followed by manda-sam
ara and the sghra-sam
ara, where, in the latter cor. sk
. sk
rection, the sghra-karn.a is calculated in terms of the radius R only, and not
in terms of the avisis..ta-manda-karn. a. However, Tantrasangraha

does not

666

8. Computation of Planets

prescribe any three-stage process for the interior planets. Instead, it prescribes just the manda-sam
ara followed by the sghra-sam
ara,14 where
. sk
. sk
the latter involves the use of avisis..ta-manda-karn.a. Further, as was noted
earlier, Tantrasangraha

also stipulates that the manda-phala should be applied to the mean planet and not the mean Sun as stipulated in the earlier
texts.
The Text presents an elaborate justification to show how the effect of the
avisis..ta-manda-karn.a in the simple two step process of manda-sam
ara fol. sk
lowed by sghra-sam
ara can be simulated by employing a multi-stage pro. sk
cess. It also presents a discussion of alternative models proposed by the
Parahita School, by Mu
njala and others, who employ different rules for the
variation of manda-karn.a. The Text also discusses the pre-Tantrasangraha

formulations for interior planets.


However, details of the argument presented in the Text are not entirely clear
to us. Perhaps, a study of the discussion of the same topic as found in
nkara
Sa

Variyars commentary Yukti-dpik


a on Tantrasangraha

may help in
explicating all the details of the argument as presented in the Text.

Chapter 9
Earth and Celestial Spheres
The chapter commences with a discussion on the three spheres, (i) Bh
ugola
the terrestrial sphere, (ii) V
ayugola the equatorial celestial sphere (described with reference to the celestial equator which is revolving uniformly
due to Pravaha-v
ayu) and (iii) Bhagola the zodiacal celestial sphere (described with reference to the ecliptic). This is followed by a discussion on the
motion of equinoxes. Then, we find the description of some of the important
great circles and their secondaries, which are used as the reference circles for
describing the location of a celestial object using different co-ordinates. Finally, there is an elaborate discussion on the determination of the declination
of a celestial object with latitude.

Bh
ugola1 means the spherical Earth. Some of the physical properties of the
Earth that are mentioned here are listed below:
It is a sphere situated at the centre of the Bhagola or Naks.atra-gola2 .
It is suspended in space without any support.
It supports all living and nonliving beings on its surface.
It is the nature of all heavy things to fall towards the Earth from all
the directions around.
It is situated below when viewed from any part of the sky.

Continuing with the description, a few important locations on the surface
of the Earth are mentioned. They are specified with reference to niraks.adesa and samarekh
a. Niraks.a-desa refers to the locus of points with zero
latitude (the terrestrial equator). Samarekh
a is a longitude circle (secondary
to the equator). The names of the cities located at the four corners on the
terrestrial equator which are ninety degrees apart are mentioned. The names
of the north and the south poles are also given. Ujjayani is situated on the
samarekh
a passing through Lank
a, and has a northern latitude. The names
of these places and their locations on the Earth are indicated in Figure 9.1.
Then we find the description of Dhruva-s (celestial poles) and the diurnal
circles of celestial objects. For an observer having a northern latitude, the
northern Dhruva P1 is visible, whereas the southern Dhruva P2 is not visible, as it lies below the horizon (see Figure 9.2).

(they never rise or set). Similarly, stars near the southern Dhruva P2 would
never be observed as they are always below the horizon. However at the
equator, all the stars would be visible, as can be seen in Figure 9.3.

the two Dhruva-s, P1 and P2 .
The daks.in.ottara-vr.tta (prime meridian) is the great circle passing through
the poles and the zenith. Lank
a-ks.itija is the equatorial horizon. Further,
it may be noted that the three great circles ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala, daks.in.ottaravr.tta and Lank
a-ks.itija are perpendicular to each other. They intersect at
six points: P1 , W, P2 , E, Z1 and Z2 . While the first four points lie on
the horizon, the latter two are the poles of the horizon right above and
below. These six points are called the svastika-s, cardinal points. The three
great circles divide the celestial sphere into eight equal parts, four above the
horizon, and four below.

The celestial sphere described with reference to the ecliptic as the central

Sun in its eastward (annual) motion. In Figure 9.4, the four important points
on the ecliptic and its orientation with respect to the celestial equator are
indicated.
In Figure 9.5, the different orientations of the ecliptic with respect to the
celestial equator at different times during the day are depicted for an equatorial observer. In Figure 9.5(a) Mes.a

horizon; it is just rising. In (b) it is at the zenith. In (c) it is setting and is
at the west point and in (d) it is at the nadir. In 9.5(d), the other halves of
the equator and the ecliptic (which is usually shown by dashed lines) have
not been shown.
Just as the celestial equator is the central great circle of the V
ayugola, the
ecliptic is the central great circle of the Bhagola. The two poles of the
ecliptic K1 and K2 are the r

ecliptic, as the Dhruva-s P1 and P2 to the celestial equator. A r

Ayana-calana

The points of intersection of the celestial equator and the ecliptic, denoted
by and , are called the equinoxes. The ends of Virgo (Kany
a) and Pisces
(Mna), or equivalently Tul
adi and Mes.a
di, would be the equinoxes at some
epoch as shown in Figure 9.8. This would be the case when there is no
ayana-calana and the equinoctial points are taken as the reference points for
the measurement of s
ayana or tropical longitude. But actually these points
are in motion with respect to the fixed stars. The manner in which they
move is described in the following section.

9.5

The nature of the motion of equinoxes

It is stated that the motion of equinoxes can be eastward or westward.


These are schematically shown in Figures 9.9a and 9.9b. Actually, the motion described in the Text represents the phenomenon called Trepidation

of equinoxes, where the equinox executes an oscillatory motion, going both
eastwards and westwards from Mes.a
di to a maximum extent of 24 . This is
different from the continuous retrograde motion, which is usually referred to
as the Precession of the equinoxes.

Figure 9.9a: The westward motion of the vernal equinox.

In Figure 9.9a, the motion of the equinox is shown westward (retrograde).


Hence, the amount of precession/trepidation should be added to the nirayan.a
longitude, longitude measured from the Mes.a
di eastwards, to obtain the
tropical longitude, longitude measured from the vernal equinox eastwards.
In Figure 9.9b, where the motion of the equinox is shown eastward (direct),
the amount of precession/trepidation should be subtracted from the nirayan.a
longitude to obtain the tropical longitude. The obliquity of the ecliptic
remains the same at 24 even as the motion of the equinoxes takes place.
With respect to an observer on the Earth, it is the ecliptic which is moving
and not the celestial equator. Because of this, the r

motion. But their diurnal circles remain the same as the deviation of the
r
asi-k
u.ta
-s from the Dhruva-s is always 24 . This can be explained through
the ayan
anta-r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta which is the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta (see Figure 9.10)
passing through the ayan
anta-s (the solsticial points) and of course through
the poles of the ecliptic K1 and K2 . It is further mentioned that all these
circles can be drawn with the aid of a pair of compasses (karkat.aka-sal
ak
a).
The celestial equator and the ecliptic are both great circles which intersect
at two points. Consider the common diameter of these two circles, passing
through the common centre and the equinoxes. The diameter joining the
two solstices would be perpendicular to the common diameter. These are
indicated by dotted lines in Figure 9.10.
The ayan
anta-r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta is perpendicular to both the celestial equator
and the ecliptic. The solstices (ayan
anta-s) will move on account of precession/trepidation. Due to this, the ayan
anta-r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta will also move in
the same direction and so will the r
asi-k
u.ta-s, K1 and K2 . The latter move
around the Dhruva-s, maintaining a distance of 24 . This implies that their
diurnal circles remain the same, though they swing to the west or east on
these, due to the motion of the equinoxes. The picture described here is the
same as the modern geocentric picture of precession, except that the motion
considered here is oscillatory (can be in either direction).
The longitude of the true planet obtained from calculations, called the
sphut.a-graha corresponds to the distance of the planet from Mes.a
di. To
this, the amount of motion of the equinoxes has to be added to obtain the
corrected true planet which is referred to here as gol
adi.

Vayugola for a non-equatorial observer

For an observer having zero latitude the central circle of the v


ayugola (celestial equator), and the diurnal circles are all vertical circles and the bhagola
is inclined to the v
ayugola. For an observer having a northern or southern
latitude, the v
ayugola is not vertical but is inclined. The bhagola whose orientation is fixed with respect to the v
ayugola, is also correspondingly inclined
and has a slow motion (corresponding to the motion of equinoxes).

9.7

Zenith and horizon at different locations on


the surface of the Earth

The Earth is a sphere. Hence, at any place on Earth, a person would feel
that he is standing on top of the Earth. But the surface of the Earth (over
which he stands) looks spread and so the observer feels that he is standing

perpendicular to the flat Earth surface. In fact, a ks.itija (horizon) is conceived at every point on the surface of the Earth. This is the svadesa-ks.itija
or the local horizon. All the celestial bodies are rising and setting on that
horizon. Only that portion of the sky which is above the horizon is visible.
The centre of this visible part is the zenith called khamadhya. The celestial
spheres for observers at different locations on the Earth are described below.
These are illustrated in Figures. 9.11.
The aks.a-dan.d.a is the north-south axis passing through the centre of the
Earth and extending to the poles. The celestial sphere is attached to it
and rotates around it. The celestial equator and the equatorial horizon
would have different inclinations with the local horizon at different places.
For an equatorial observer, the celestial equator passes through the east(E),
west(W) points and the zenith(Z); and the horizon (niraks.a-ks.itija) passes
through the poles (refer to Figure 9.11(a)). For an observer at the north
pole, the Dhruva is the zenith and the celestial equator is the horizon. As
one moves gradually from the equator northwards, the altitude of the north
pole also increases correspondingly. The zenith, the horizon and the altitude
of the pole star, are different for observers at different parts of the Earth.
These are illustrated in Figure 9.11 (b) and (c).
For a place with a northern latitude, the meridian circle passing through
E, W and Z is called the sama-man.d.ala. The local horizon which passes
through the four cardinal points N, E, S, W is perpendicular to this.
The unman.d.ala is the equatorial horizon passing through E, W and the
north pole P1 . This is called 6 o clock circle in modern astronomy. The
inclination of the unman.d.ala to the local horizon is the same as that of the
celestial equator (ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala) to the sama-man.d.ala, which is equal to
the latitude of the place . Just as the three great circles, namely the celestial
equator, equatorial horizon, and the north-south circle (daks.in.ottara-vr.tta)
are perpendicular to each other, the sama-man.d.ala (prime vertical), local
horizon and the north-south circle are three great circles perpendicular to
each other. The globe can be divided into eight equal parts even with these
circles, the six svastika-s being N, S, E, W, Z and Z (the nadir, opposite of
zenith).
Consider a fourth circle called valita-vr.tta4 passing through any pair of
svastika-s formed by two of the three circles, and inclined to them. The

distance of separation between points on this valita-vr.tta and the other two
circles is found through the rule of three, as will be explained below.
The v

for calculations pertaining to the planets. Hence they have been explained
here in detail.

Distance from a Valita-vr.tta to two perpendicular circles

Consider three great circles in the sphere with radius R; two of them are
perpendicular to each other and the third in between them. The aim is to
find the distance of any point on the circumference of the third circle from
the the other two (which are perpendicular to each other). This problem is
illustrated by considering the celestial equator, the meridian (daks.in.ottaravr.tta) and the ecliptic. It may be noted from Figure 9.12, that the ecliptic
is situated between the two great circles namely, the celestial equator and
the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta which are perpendicular to each other.

In Figure 9.12, EW is the equator, XK the ecliptic, and P1 P2 is the

to be at the zenith. X is a point on the ecliptic whose s
ayana longitude is .
XY1 and XY2 are perpendiculars to the planes of the celestial equator and
the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta respectively. KE = , is the obliquity of the ecliptic.5
Let XO be perpendicular to OZ (= O). O Y1 and O Y2 are in the plane

celestial longitude of X. Now, XO is the is..ta-dorjy

Thus, the use of the rule of three prescribed in the Text to find the distances,
amounts to using the appropriate similar triangles.

In Figure 9.13a, the vernal equinox coincides with the zenith. P is a planet
with latitude Y P = (as will be specified in later sections) where Y is on the
ecliptic. The ghat.ik
a-vr.tta, the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta and the ayan
anta-vipartavr.tta are three mutually perpendicular great circles. As a fourth circle, the
apakrama-vr.tta which is inclined to the celestial equator is considered. X is

9.10 Some Viparta and Nata-vr.tta-s

683

a point on it 90 away from Y . At this stage, X is referred to as the desired


point on the ecliptic. Now three more circles are considered.
1. The first is the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta which passes through X and the
poles P1 and P2 . This is perpendicular to the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and in

tersects it at X . That is, P1 X W = P2 X W = 90 . The maximum


separation between ghat.ik
a-nata and daks.in.ottara-vr.tta which is also
called the vis.uvad-viparta-vr.tta is ZX , along the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta The
maximum separation between ghat.ik
a-nata and the ayan
anta-vipartavr.tta is X W , which is also along the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta.
2. The second is the vis.u
vad-viparta-nata-vr.tta or the daks.in.ottara-natavr.tta, W XV passing through X and the intersection point W of ghat.ik
avr.tta and ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta. As W is the pole of the vis.uvadviparta-vr.tta, this vis.uvad-viparta-nata is perpendicular to it. The
maximum separation between vis.uvad-viparta-nata-vr.tta and the ghaa-vr.tta is ZV , along the vis.uvad-viparta-vr.tta.
.tik
3. The pole of the ecliptic K1 is on the ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta, at a

separation of = 24 away from the pole P1 . The r


asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta
passing through Y , P and K1 intersects the celestial equator at Y
and the ghat.ik
a-nata at U .
Now we show that ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta is perpendicular to r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta.
Since K1 is the pole of the ecliptic, XK1 = 90 . By choice, the point Y
on the ecliptic is such that XY = 90 . Therefore, any point on the great
circle passing through K1 and Y is at 90 from X. In other words, X is
the pole of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta U K1 Y Y . This implies that XY = 90 . But
P1 Y = 90 as Y is on the celestial equator. Therefore any point on the
great circle passing through P1 and X is at 90 from Y . In other words,
Y is the pole of the ghat.ik
a-nata P1 U XP2 . Hence, Y U = 90 . This also
implies that the ghat.ik
a-nata is perpendicular to the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta.
The maximum divergence between the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta U K1 Y Y and the gha
a-vr.tta is U X , along the ghat.ik
a-nata, which is perpendicular to both
.tik
the circles. X which lies on the vis.uvad-viparta-nata is the pole of the
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Hence, the vis.uvad-viparta-nata is perpendicular to r
asik
u.ta-vr.tta. It is also perpendicular to the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta. Hence, the
maximum divergence between the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and vis.uvad-viparta-vr.tta

684

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

is DV , along the vis.uvad-viparta-nata. The three circles (i) ghat.ik


a-nata,
(ii) vis.uvad-viparta-nata, and (iii) the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta are shown by bold solid
lines in Figure 9.13a.
Now, let the longitude of X be X = ZX = . The distance between X
and OZ is
XM = R sin .
(9.6a)
Similarly, the distance between X and ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta is
XN = R cos .

9.11 Declination of a planet with latitude

685

Actually XL gives the radius of the diurnal circle of X, called dyujy


a. This
is also determined by considering an arc on the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta. For, in
Figure 9.13a,
U X = U X XX = 90 .
(9.8)
Also,

Therefore,

P2 X = P2 X XX = 90 .

(9.9)

R sin U X = R sin P2 X = R cos = dyujy

(9.10)

Thus, dyujy
a is the maximum separation between the r

ghat.ik
a-vr.tta on the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta. It is also the Rsine on the nata-vr.tta
from the pole P2 to the desired point on the apakrama-vr.tta.

9.11

Declination of a planet with latitude

Consider a planet P on the r


asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta as in Figure 9.13a. In the following, a declination type formula is employed at different stages to determine
the declination of the planet with latitude. By this, we mean a formula of
the form
sin = sin sin ,
(9.11)
where is the declination of the Sun whose longitude is . is the inclination
of the ecliptic with respect to the equator (Figure 9.14(a)).
Consider any two great circles which are inclined to each other by an angle,
say , as in Figure 9.14(b). Then, the distance (d) of a point P on one of
the circles, corresponding to an arc from the point of intersection O, from
the other circle is
d = R sin = R sin sin .
(9.12)
This can be proved along the same lines as was followed in section 9.9 for
deriving (9.4). This also follows from the application of sine formula, to
the spherical triangle OPN in Figure 9.14(b).
It may be noted that (9.12) reduces to (9.11) when the two great circles
considered happen to be the celestial equator and the ecliptic.
In Figure 9.13a, it may be noted that the apakrama-man. d.ala and daks.in.ottaravr.tta intersect at Z and the angle of inclination is 90 . Hence, the

is..ta
pakrama-kot. i is equal to the distance of X from daks.in.ottara-vr.tta, which
is
R sin V X = R sin(ZX) sin(90 )
= R sin(ZX) cos .

(9.13)

The Rsine of the arc from X to W on the daks.in.ottara-nata-vr.tta is the kot.i


of the above and is given by
R sin XW

= R sin(90 V X)
= R cos V X.

(9.14)

Consider the arc ZX . As it lies along the equator, it is related to time


(k
ala), and hence the Rsine of it is called k
alajy
a and is given by
k
alajy
a = R sin(ZX ).

(9.15)

It is also called lankodaya-jy

a. In the above equation, ZX = 360


and ZX = 360 , where and are the longitude and Right Ascension
(RA) of X. Here we have subtracted and from 360 , because both the
longitude and RA are measured eastwards. The kot.i of (9.15) is
Lankodayajy

a-kot. i = R sin X W = R cos ZX .

(9.16)

ZY = ZX + X Y = ZX + 90 ,

(9.17)

Further,
as Y is the pole of the ghat.ik
a-nata and X Y = 90 . It may be noted
that the k
ala-kot.i-jy
a, which is defined to be R sin ZY is the same as the
Lankodayajy

a-kot. i given by (9.16).


Now, Y Y is a segment of r

apakrama-man. d.ala. Now, k

by R sin Y Y , is the distance of Y (on celestial equator) to the ecliptic. The


inclination between the two being , we have
R sin Y Y

= R sin sin(ZY )
= R sin cos(ZX ).

(9.18)

Let the planet P be situated on the r


asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta as shown in Figure 9.13a.
Y P is viks.epa or the latitude of P . Y P is the arc from Y (intersection of
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and celestial equator) to P on the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta.
The maximum separation between r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and ghat.ik
a-man.d.ala (both
of which are perpendicular to ghat.ik
a-nata) is UX = 90 - XX.
This is also equal to the inclination of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta with the ghat.ik
a

man.d.ala (= U Y X ), since Y is the pole of ghat.ik


a-nata along which U X
is measured. The Rsine of the declination of P (= R sin ) is equal to the
distance of P from the celestial equator, and is given by
|R sin | = R sin(Y P ) sin(U X )

= R sin(Y P ) sin(90 XX )

= R sin(Y Y + Y P ) cos(XX )
= R(sin Y Y cos Y P + cos Y Y sin Y P ) cos XX
= R sin Y Y cos XX cos Y P
+ R cos XX cos Y Y sin Y P.

(9.19)

Now, R sin Y Y cos XX is the declination of Y ; as Y Y is on r


asi-k
u.t avr.tta, it corresponds to declination of a planet at Y whose latitude is zero
(aviks.ipta-graha). Denoting it by Y , (9.19) reduces to
|R sin | = |R sin Y | cos Y P + R cos XX cos Y Y sin Y P.

(9.20)

Also, the declination of X is


|R sin X | = R sin XX = R sin sin ZX,

(9.21a)

and the declination of Y is


R sin Y = R sin sin ZY = R sin cos ZX.

(9.21b)

From (9.21a) and (9.21b), we get


R2 sin2 X + R2 sin2 Y = R2 sin2 .

(9.22)

688

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

Subtracting both sides from the square of trijy


a, we get

or

R2 R2 (sin2 X + R2 sin2 Y ) = R2 R2 sin2 .

R cos X R sin Y

= R cos .

(9.23a)
(9.23b)

But,
R2 sin2 Y

= R2 sin2 Y Y cos2 XX
= R2 sin2 Y Y cos2 X .

(9.23c)

Using (9.23c) in (9.23b), we get


R2 cos2 = R2 cos2 X R2 sin2 Y Y cos2 X
= R2 cos2 (Y Y ) cos2 X

= R2 cos2 (Y Y ) cos2 (XX ).

(9.24a)

Hence,
R cos Y Y cos XX = R cos .

(9.24b)

Substituting (9.24b) in (9.19), we have


|R sin | = |R sin Y | cos Y P + R cos sin Y P
= kr

anti-kot. i viks.epa,

(9.25a)

where sin Y P is viks.epa (jy


a), and cos Y P is the viks.epa-kot.i of a planet P
with latitude.
In Figure 9.13a, all the arcs are measured westwards. Also, X, Y and P are
south of the celestial equator. Let , and be the longitude, latitude and
the declination of P respectively. In terms of these, we have (since is also
the longitude of Y )
R sin = R(sin(Y ) cos + cos sin )
= R(sin sin cos + cos sin ).

(9.25b)

This result is exact and is same as the expression for the declination of
a planet with latitude in modern spherical astronomy, as we shall explain
below.

9.12 Apakrama-kot. i

9.12

689

Apakrama-kot.i

Apakrama-kot.i refers to the distance between the planet and the daks.in.ottaravr.tta (north-south circle). In Figure 9.13a, the daks.in.ottara-nata-vr.tta is
perpendicular to the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta. The maximum divergence between the latter two circles occurs on the former and is
equal to DV . Further
V V = V D + DX + XV = 180 ,
as the daks.in.ottara-nata-vr.tta is bisected by the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta. Also
DX = 90 , as X is the pole of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. Hence, the distance
between D and daks.in.ottara-vr.tta is R sin DV , where
R sin DV = R cos V X
= kot.i of is..ta
pakrama-kot. i,

(9.26)

as is..ta
pakrama-kot. i or is..takr
anti-kot.i = R sin V X, as was noted earlier.
Now the problem is to determine the distance of the planet P from the
daks.in.ottara-vr.tta. Let the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta passing through P intersect the
daks.in.ottara-vr.tta at B and C as shown in Figure 9.13a. D, which is 90
away from the intersection point of daks.in.ottara-vr.tta and r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta, is
at a distance of R cos V X from the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta. Hence the distance
of P from the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta is R sin(P C) cos V X. But P C = Y C Y P ,
where Y P is the latitude of the planet P . Hence,
Apakrama-kot. i = R sin(Y C Y P ) cos V X
= R sin Y C cos V X cos Y P
R cos Y C cos V X sin Y P.

(9.27)

Now the distance of Y from the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta is R sin Y C cos V X. This


can also be calculated in a different way. The maximum divergence between the ecliptic and the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta occurs on the Lank
a-ks.itija or
ayan
anta-viparta-vr.tta as shown in Figure 9.13a, and is equal to R sin(90
) = R cos , as the two circles are inclined to each other at an angle 90, as
is clear from Figure 9.13a. Hence, the distance of Y from the daks.in.ottaravr.tta is R cos sin Y Z . (If is the longitude of the planet P , Y Z = 180 ).
Therefore,
R sin Y C cos V X = R cos sin Y Z .
(9.28)

690

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

Now, we have to simplify R cos Y C cos V X in the second term of the RHS
of (9.27). For this, consider
R2 cos2 Y C cos2 V X = R2 cos2 V X (1 sin2 Y C)

= R2 cos2 V X R2 sin2 Y C cos2 V X


= R2 R2 sin2 V X
2

R2 cos2 sin2 Y Z
2

[using (9.28)]

= R R cos sin ZX

R2 cos2 sin2 Y Z ,

(9.29)

as R sin V X = R cos sin ZX (the is..ta-dorjy


a-kot.i). But, ZX + Y Z = 90 ,

as ZZ = 180 and XY = 90 . Hence, ZX and Y Z are bhuj


a and kot.i of
each other, and
R2 sin2 ZX + R2 sin2 Y Z = R2 .
Using the above, (9.29) reduces to
R2 cos2 Y C cos2 V X = R2 R2 cos2
= R2 sin2 .

(9.30a)

Therefore,
R cos Y C cos V X = R sin .

(9.30b)

Using (9.27), (9.28) and (9.30), we obtain the distance of the planet P with
latitude Y P from the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta to be
Apakrama-kot.i = R cos sin Y Z cos Y P R sin sin Y P
1
(Apakrama-kot. i of Y viks.epa-kot.i
=
R
Param
apakrama viks.epa).

(9.31)

We now find the expression for the k


alajy
a. For this, consider the great circle
in Figure 9.15 passing through the planet P and the north and south poles
P1 and P2 . Let it intersect the celestial equator at A. Then R sin AZ is the
k
ala-jy
a or k
ala-dorgun.a. This is termed so, as AZ is an arc on the celestial
equator and hence related to the time. In fact, AZ = 180 , where is
the Right Ascension of the planet P . P B is a section of the diurnal path of
the planet, which is a small circle parallel to the equator. P A = , where
is the declination of P , and P P2 = 90 P A. Hence,
R sin P P2 = R cos = dyujy
a.

Now the maximum separation between the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta and the great

(9.32)

This is already given by (9.31). Equating the two, we get

(9.35)

Supplementary Note
Since these results for the declination and right ascension of a planet with
latitude are not commonly known, we sketch a simple spherical trigonometrical derivation of these results in the following. In Figure 9.16, X is the

Applying the cosine formula, we get


cos(90 ) = cos cos(90 ) + sin sin(90 ) cos(90 ).

(9.36a)

Hence,
sin = sin sin cos + cos sin .

(9.36b)

This is the distance of X from the celestial equator which is same as (9.25b).
Expression for Right Ascension
In Figure 9.16, XPo = is perpendicular to the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta. Then the
distance of X from the plane of daks.in.ottara-vr.tta is R sin . Let X = ,

That is,

(9.38b)

9. Earth and Celestial Spheres

Using (9.37a) and (9.37b) in the above, we get


sin = cos sin cos sin sin .

(9.39)

This is the distance of X from the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta. Now, consider the

Figure 10.1: The seven great circles and their intersections.


The seven circles depicted in Figure 10.1, have already been explained in
chapter 9 in connection with Figure 9.13a on page 683. Now we give some
relations which would be used in later discussions. In Figure 10.1, it may be
noted that X Y = XY = XD = 90 . Hence,
Y Z = 90 ZX ,

Y Z = 90 ZX,

V D = 90 V X.

Since X is the pole of the r


asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta, XU = XD = 90 ; Hence, U X =

90 XX = 90 ; Also, XP2 = 90 . The Rsine of the maximum


divergence between celestial equator and the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta is
R sin U X = R sin(90 ) = R cos = dyujy
a.

(10.1)

698

10. The Fifteen Problems

Similarly, the Rsine of the maximum divergence between the north-south


circle and r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta is
R sin V D = R sin(90 V X)
= R cos V X

= kot.i of is..ta

The maximum declination R sin (parama-kr

(10.7)

Since both the factors in the RHS have been found, is..ta
pakrama-kot. i is
known. The rationale for the above expression is as follows. For the arc
ZS = 90 , the divergence between the ecliptic and daks.in.ottara-vr.tta
is
R sin SP2 = R sin(90 ) = R cos .
Hence, for the arc ZX = , the divergence is given by
R sin XV = R cos sin .
3. Nata-Jy
a :
This refers to R sin ZV which is the maximum divergence between the celestial equator and daks.in.ottara-nata-vr.tta, measured along the daks.in.ottara-vr.tta corresponding to the arc W V = 90 .
Hence, the divergence corresponding to the arc W X = 90 V X on
the nata-vr.tta is given by
R sin ZV sin(90 V X) = R sin ZV cos V X.
But this is R sin XX = R sin . Hence,

Now,

By construction, X Y = 90 . Therefore, ZX = W Y . Hence,
R cos = k

The distance between ghat.ik

Consider a second r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta ZK1 Z , passing through the zenith and
the pole of the ecliptic K1 . By construction, the angle between this second
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the equator is 90 . Therefore, the distance between

Now, K1 being the pole of ecliptic, K1 Y = 90 . Therefore, K1 Y + Y Y =


90 . And
R2 sin2 K1 Y = R2 cos2 Y Y
= R2 R2 sin2 Y Y.

(10.19)

Using (10.17) in the above equation we have


R2 sin2 K1 Y = R2 R2 sin2 cos2 .

(10.20)

Consider the two r

The maximum declination = R sin (parama-kr

It is stated1 that
nata-kot.i = R cos ZV = R sin Z C.

(10.24)

Now, the maximum separation between the apakrama and daks.in.ottara-vr.tta


1

This can be derived once we note the following:


X is the pole of the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and hence X is at 90 from C.

W is the pole of the daks.inottara-vr.tta and hence that is also at 90 from C.


Therefore, C is pole of the great circle through X and W . This implies that V C = 90 .
But, ZV + V C + Z C = 180 . Hence, ZV + Z C = 90 . Therefore,
R cos ZV = R sin Z C.

704

10. The Fifteen Problems

is R sin SP2 = R cos . Therefore, the distance of C from the apakrama-vr.tta,


R sin Y C = R sin(ZC) cos
= R cos(ZV ) cos .

(10.25)

The angle between the second r


asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta (ZK1 Z ) and the daks.in.ottaravr.tta is . Hence, the distance of C from the second r

u.ta-vr.tta will be

= R sin cos ZV
p
R2 cos2 ZV R2 cos2 ZV cos2 .

(10.26)

Considering the divergence between the two r


asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s, the above is
the pram
an.a-phala or distance, which corresponds to the arc
K1 C = K1 Y + Y C = 90 + Y C,
the Rsine of which is the pram
an.a given by
p
R sin K1 C = R cos Y C = R2 R2 cos2 ZV cos2 .

The icch
a-phala is the maximum divergence between the two r
asi-k

which is R sin Y Z . This corresponds to the arc K1 Y = 90 , the Rsine of


which is the icch

From this, R sin Y Z is found. The kot.i of this is R sin ZX (as ZX + Y Z =


90 ), which is sin (is..ta-dorjy
a). This is how the is..ta-dorjy
a is determined
in terms of parama-kr
anti and the nata-jy

problems.

10.7

Problems six to nine

In problems 1 5, one of the two quantities given was parama-kr


anti,
(item 1 in Table 10.2). We now move on to the next set of four problems
(6 9) in which one of the quantities given is is..ta-kr
anti, the second of the
six quantities listed in Table 10.2.

10.7 Problems six to nine

10.7.1

705

Problem 6

The actual declination = R sin (is..ta-kr


anti), and the is..ta

R cos sin , are given.
Here, the dorjy

sum of the squares of the given quantities. That is,
p
(10.28)
R sin = R2 sin2 + R2 cos2 sin2 ,

since and are related by the relation (10.6). All the other quantities are
determined as earlier.

10.7.2

Problem 7

The actual declination = R sin (is..ta-kr


anti), and the dorjy
a = R sin , are
given.
It is straightforward to find all the four quantities.

10.7.3

Problem 8

The actual declination = R sin (is..ta-kr


anti), and the k
alajy
a = R sin , are
given.
First the cosines R cos (dyujy
a) and R cos (k
alakot.i-jy
a) of the given
quantities are determined. For this, consider the divergence between the
ghat.ik
a-nata and ks.itija. Here, R sin X W = R cos , the pram
an.a-phala,
and R sin XS = R cos , the icch
a-phala, are the distances of X and X corresponding to the arcs X P2 , the Rsine of which is R (pram
an. a) and XP2 ,
the Rsine of which is R cos (icch
a). Now, the dorjy
a-kot.i = R cos is found
using the principle of rule of three. Thus, we have
R cos

R

(10.29)

From the above cos can be found. With this, the dorjy

10. The Fifteen Problems

Problem 9

The actual declination = R sin (is..ta-kr


anti), and natajy
a = R sin ZV , are
given.
When R sin ZV is the separation between the y
amyottara-nata and the equator, R sin V P2 = R cos ZV is the separation between y
amyottara-nata and
the horizon. When
R sin = R sin XX ,
(10.30)
is the separation between the first two, the distance between the other two,
R sin XS, is given by the rule of three:

Since ZX + XS = 90

R cos ZV
R sin XS

R sin
R sin ZV
and ZX = ,

The kot.i of (10.32) is the dorjy


a = R sin . The rest are found as earlier. The
result (10.32) can also be obtained using standard spherical trigonometry.
Considering the triangle ZVX and applying the four-parts formula,
cos ZV cos(90 ) = sin ZV cot sin(90 ) cot 90 .
Simplifying the above, and using the result sin = sin sin , we have
R cos =

R cos ZV
R sin ,
R sin ZV

which is the same as (10.32).

10.8

Problems ten to twelve

In problems 6 9, one of the two given quantities was is..ta-kr


anti. We now
move on to the next set of three problems in which one of the quantities
given is is..ta

10.8 Problems ten to twelve

10.8.1

707

Problem 10

The is..ta

R sin = R2 sin2 R2 cos2 sin2 = R sin sin .
From R sin and R sin , the rest can be obtained.

From k

10. The Fifteen Problems

Problem 12

The is..ta

given.
The maximum separation between y

(10.38)
R sin V P2 = R cos ZV = R2 R2 sin2 ZV .
Also,

R sin XW = R cos V X =

R2 R2 sin2 V X.

(10.39)

Then, R sin XS = R cos (dorjy


a-kot. i), which is the separation between X
and the horizon, is given by
R cos =

R sin(XW ) R sin(V P2 )
.
R

(10.40)

From this, the dorjy


a is obtained. Again, from the is..ta
pakrama-kot. i and
dorjy
a, R cos , and hence parama-kr

them, the rest can be determined.

10.9

Problems thirteen and fourteen

In problems 10 12, one of the two given quantities was is..ta


pakrama-kot. i. We
now move on to the next set of two problems in which one of the quantities
given is dorjy

10.9.1

Problem 13

The dorjy
a = R sin , and k
alajy

From this,
R sin XS = R cos =
and

R sin X W = R cos =

R2 R2 sin2 ,

R2 R2 sin2 ,

(10.41)

are found. Also we have


R sin(XS)
R sin(XP2 )
R cos

R sin(X W )
R sin(X P2 )
R

(10.43)

Using (10.40) and (10.41) in the above equation, R cos is determined. From
this, R sin is found and with the knowledge of R sin and R sin , the rest
are obtained.

10.9.2

Problem 14

The dorjy
a = R sin , and natajy
a = R sin ZV , are given.
From them,
R sin XS = R cos =
and
R sin V P2 = R cos ZV =

R2 R2 sin2 ,

R2 R2 sin2 ZV ,

(10.44)
(10.45)

are found. Now, consider the separation of X and V on the daks.in.ottaranata-vr.tta from ks.itija. We have
R sin XW
R sin V W
R
=

.
R sin XS
R sin V P2
R sin V P2

(10.46)

Using the previous two equations in the above equation, R sin XW is obtained. The kot.i of this is R sin V X (kr
anti-kot.i). From R sin and R sin V X,
others are obtained.

10.10

Problem 15

This is the last problem in which the last two quantities in Table 10.2, namely
the k
alajy
a = R sin ZX , and nata-jy
a = R sin ZV , are given.
Now,
R sin W Y = k
alajy
a,
and

R sin W D = R sin V X = kr
anti-kot.i.

(10.47)

710

10. The Fifteen Problems

Further, R sin X W = k
ala-kot.i and XD = V W = 90 . Now,
R sin P1 B = nata-jy
a,
and

R sin P1 U

= kr
anti,

(10.48)

which is the divergence between the r


asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta and the horizon along

the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta. Also, U Y = CD = 90 , and P1 Z = 90 .
Now, the maximum divergence between the ghat.ik
a and y
amyottara-natavr.tta is the nata-jy
a = R sin ZV = R sin Z V . Hence, the divergence between these two vr.tta-s on the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta, which is R sin Y D corresponding to the arc W Y = ZX , is given by
R sin Y D = R sin ZV sin ZX .

(10.49)

Similarly, the maximum divergence between the ghat.ik


a-nata-vr.tta and the
north-south circle is the k
alajy
a = R sin ZX . Hence, R sin BU which is
the distance between B on the north-south circle and the ghat.ik
a-nata-vr.tta
corresponding to the arc P1 B is given by
R sin BU

= R sin P1 B sin ZX
= R sin ZV sin ZX
= R sin Y D.

(10.50)

That is, the two icch


a-phala-s are equal. Now Y C = CDY D = 90 Y D.
Hence, the divergence between the ghat.ik
a-vr.tta and the north-south circle
along the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta, is R sin Y C given by the expression
q

(R2 R2 sin2 Y D)
R sin Y C =
q
=
(R2 R2 sin2 ZV sin2 ZX ).
(10.51)

Then, the is..ta


pakrama-kot. i R sin V X and is..ta
pakrama = R sin = R sin P1 U ,
which are considered as icch
a-phala-s, are obtained from the relations (based
on the rule of three) :

(10.52)
R
R sin Y C
In the above expressions, the LHS is nothing but the ratio of icch
a-phala to
icch
a. These can be derived in the following manner.

10.10 Problem 15

711

Consider the first tiryag-vr.tta, which is the great circle through B, W and
C. As B is the pole of the y
amyottara-nata-vr.tta the maximum divergence
between this vr.tta and r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta is
R sin W D = R sin V X = is..ta
pakrama-kot. i.
Consider the divergence between these two vr.tta-s at Y which is R sin Y T1
(Y T1 being perpendicular to this tiryag-vr.tta). Therefore,
R sin Y T1 = R sin(W D) sin(BY ).

(10.53)

Since, BY = 90 + BU = 90 + Y D, we have
R sin Y T1 = R sin(W D) cos(Y D)
 
q

R sin(W D) R2 R2 sin2 (Y D).

(10.54)

Now, the angle between the ghat.ik


a-vr.tta and the first tiryag-vr.tta is
T1 = 90 Y W
D
Y W
= 90 V Z
= 90 ZV.

(10.55)

Therefore,
R sin Y T1 = R sin W Y sin(90 ZV )

= R
psin W Y cos ZV
= pR2 sin2 W Y R2 sin2 W Y sin2 ZV

R2 sin2 W Y R2 sin2 Y D.

From (10.54) and (10.56), we have


p

R sin W D R2 R2 sin2 Y D = R R2 sin2 W Y R2 sin2 Y D,
Or,

R sin V X

R2 R2 sin2 (ZX ) sin2 ZV =

(10.57)

From this, the is..ta


pakrama-kot. i (R sin V X) is obtained in terms of the k
alajy
a

(R sin ZX ) and natajy


a (R sin ZV ).

712

10. The Fifteen Problems

Consider the second tiryag-vr.tta, which is the great circle through P1 , Y


and P2 . As Y P1 = U Y = 90 , the maximum divergence between this vr.tta
and the r
asi-k
u.t a-vr.tta is
R sin P1 U = R sin = is..ta
pakrama.

(10.58)

Consider the divergence between the two vr.tta-s at B which is R sin BT2
(BT2 being perpendicular to this tiryag-vr.tta). Therefore,
R sin BT2 = R sin(P1 U ) sin(BY ).

(10.59)

Since, BY = 90 + BU = 90 + Y D, we have
R sin BT2 = R sin(P1 U ) cos(Y D)
 
p

R sin(P1 U ) R2 R2 sin2 Y D

p

(10.60)

Now, the angle between the y


amyottara-vr.tta and the second tiryag-vr.tta is
B P1 T2 = Y Z = 90 W Y

= 90 ZX .

(10.61)

Therefore,
R sin BT2 = R sin P1 B sin(90 ZX )

= R
psin ZV cos ZX
= pR2 sin2 ZV R2 sin2 ZX sin2 ZV

R2 sin2 ZV R2 sin2 Y D.

(10.62)

Equating the two expressions for R sin BT2 , we get

or

R sin

(10.63)

From this, the is..ta

Chapter 11
Gnomonic Shadow
Apart from providing the rationale behind different procedures, this chapter also summarizes and synthesizes all the problems related to the diurnal
motion of the Sun and shadow measurements carried out with a simple instrument called sanku
(gnomon).1 Since a major portion of the chapter deals
with the measurement of shadow (ch
ay
a) cast by gnomon, the choice of the
title of the chapter, Ch
ay
a-prakaran. am (chapter on gnomic shadow) seems
quite natural and appropriate.
The chapter commences with a discussion of the method of identifying the
four directions using the forenoon and afternoon shadows of a gnomon. A
few corrections, such as the one due to the finite size of the Sun, the effect
of parallax etc., that need to be incorporated for making the measured values more accurate, are discussed in the next few sections. The theoretical
background for the procedures involved in finding the latitude of a place and
estimating the time from shadow are also presented.
The Text then goes on to an important topic called Dasa-prasn
ah. (Ten
Problems), wherein among the five quantities related to the diurnal motion,
the method to derive two of them given the other three is discussed. This is
followed by a detailed discussion of topics related to the calculation of the
orient ecliptic point, called udaya-lagna or simply lagna. Then, the effect of
parallax on longitudes and latitudes is discussed. The chapter ends with an
interesting discussion on the calculation of gnomic shadow of Moon when it
has a latitudinal deflection.

Gnomon is essentially a stick of suitable thickness and height, usually taken to be 12


units, with one of its edges sharpened to facilitate taking fine measurements of the tip of
the shadow cast by a celestial body.

11.1 Fixing directions

Fixing directions

Draw a circle with a suitable radius, on a flat surface and place the gnomon
at its centre. The centre of the circle is represented by O in Figure 11.1(a).

Figure 11.1: Fixing the directions through shadow measurements.

Let the tip of the shadow be at W and E in the forenoon and afternoon
respectively, on the circle. If the declination of the Sun were to be constant
during the course of the day, then W E would be the west-east line. However, due to the northward or southward motion of the Sun, the declination
() changes. Consequently, the tip of the eastern shadow point would have
got shifted towards south (to the point E , as shown Figure 11.1(a)), if the
Sun has northward motion ( increases) or north if the Sun has southward
motion ( decreases). So a correction , which is equal to E B (see Figure
11.1(b)), has to be applied to E to get the true east-point E . If the change
in the declination be from 1 to 2 , then the magnitude of the correction,

Consider the situation when the Sun has declination , zenith distance z
and azimuth A (refer Figure 11.2). OX is the gnomon, the length of whose
shadow is L given by
L = OY = XY sin z = K sin z,

(11.2)

where K = XY is the ch

(11.3)

Y Q is the distance of Y , the tip of the shadow of the Sun,


from the east-west line. It is given by
Y Q = L sin(A 90) = L cos A.

(11.5)

The declination of the Sun, , is given by the expression below, a formula


similar to which will be derived later:
sin = cos z sin + sin z cos cos A.

(11.6)

Now the shadow-lengths corresponding to W and E being the same, their


zenith distances are the same. When the declination of the Sun changes
from 1 to 2 , we have
sin 1 = cos z sin + sin z cos cos A1
sin 2 = cos z sin + sin z cos cos A2 .

(11.7)

sin 2 sin 1 = sin z cos (cos A2 cos A1 ) .

(11.8)

Therefore,
Rewriting the above, we get
K (sin 2 sin 1 )

Then the true east point E is the point on the circle which is at a distance
from the line E W . The true east-west line is E W . The north-south
line is the perpendicular bisector of this, and is determined by the standard
fish-figures.
The fish-figure is constructed as follows. With E and W as centres draw
two circles of equal radii. These circles instersect at two points N and S .
The region of intersection forms a fish figure as illustrated in Figure 11.1(c).
The line passing through N and S is the north-south line. By construction,
it is perpendicular to the east-west line through E and W .

On the equinoctial day, the declination at sunrise and sunset are equal and
opposite, and the Sun would be on the equator at noon. Let the shadow
of the gnomon (OX = 12) be OY on that day (see Figure 11.3). Then the

If the radius of the celestial sphere is R, the distance between the zenith and

between the pole star Dhruva and horizon, and is referred to as the aks.a.
Similarly the lambana is the perpendicular distance SL between the ghat.ik

On any day, the Sun moves on the diurnal circle (sv

whose parts are at a constant distance R sin from the celestial equator
(ignoring the change in the declination during the course of the day). This
circle is parallel to the celestial equator (see Figure 11.4). Its centre C is on
the polar axis of the celestial sphere and the radius is R cos (is..ta-dyujy

day radius). This circle is divided into four quadrants using the north-south
circle and the six-o clock circle (unman.d.ala) and into 21,600 divisions, being
the number of pr
an.a-s in a day (1 pr
an.a = 4 seconds). The rate of motion
of the Pravaha wind is constant. Hence it is possible to calculate correctly
the position of a planet on the diurnal circle, given the time elapsed after it
has risen or the time yet to elapse before setting.

In Figure 11.5, the diurnal circle of the Sun with C as the centre is indicated.
It is divided into 21,600 equal divisions, each of which is a pr
an.a. S is the
position of the Sun at some instant. The Sun sets at St . Then the arc SSt =

The unman.d.ala or the six-o clock circle and the diurnal circle intersect at

circle. Clearly,
SSt = SSu (unnata-pr
an.a) + Su St (cara-pr
an. a),
or,
= u + c .

(11.16)

Now drop perpendiculars St Su and SSu from St and S on CSu . CSu is


clearly parallel to OW , the east-west line. Also, let SSu be extended to
meet the horizon at Sh . SSh is the Unnata-jy
a. It may be noted that
SSh = SSu + Sh Su
= SSu + St Su ,

(11.17)

or,
Unnata-jy
a (north) = R cos (sin u + sin c ) ,

(11.18)

where R cos or the dyujy


a, is the radius of the diurnal circle. This is true
when the declination of the Sun is north. When it is south, one can see that
= u c and
Unnata-jy
a (south) = R cos (sin u sin c ) .

(11.19)

Note: Considering the spherical triangle St P W , it can be shown that


R sin c =

R sin sin
= R tan tan ,
cos cos

(11.20)

which is the well known relation for the cara-jy


a. Also, u = 90o H, where
H is the hour angle in modern parlance. Hence,
Unnata-jy
a = R cos (cos H + tan tan ).

(11.21)

Though this relation is not stated here, we mention it as it will be useful


later.

Mah
a-sanku

and Mahacchaya: Great gnomon


and great shadow

In Figure 11.5, let F be the foot of the perpendicular from S to the horizon.
Then SF , the perpendicular from the Sun to the horizon is the mah
a-sanku.

722

11. Gnomonic Shadow

Now, SSh is a straight line in the plane of the diurnal circle perpendicular
to the east-west line. Also the diurnal circle is inclined to the horizon at an
angle 90 , equal to the co-latitude of the place.
Clearly SF = SSh cos . Therefore,
Mah
a-sanku
= Unnata-jy
a cos .

(11.22)

Note: If z is the zenith distance of the planet S, the mah


a-sanku

SF =
R cos z. This can also be seen as follows. From (11.21) and (11.22),
Mah
a-sanku
= R(cos cos cos H + sin sin ).

(11.23)

Applying the cosine formula to the side ZS (which is the zenith distance
z) in the spherical triangle P ZS, where P Z = 90 , P S = 90 and
Z P S = H, we get
R cos z = R(cos cos cos H + sin sin ).

(11.24)

Thus we see that mah


a-sanku
is same as the Rcosine of the zenith distance
of the Sun, R cos z. The kot.i of this, or R sin z, is called mah
acch
ay
a. The
reason for this nomenclature could be as follows. The ch
ay
a and sanku

are equal to K sin z and K cos z respectively, where K is the ch


ay
a-karn.a
(shadow-hypotenuse). When K is replaced by the trijy
a R, we obtain the
mah

R cos z, and mah

Dr.nman

The dr.nman

and mah

and cosine of the arc AS on this circle. The centre of dr.nman

in Figure 11.6). The sanku
and ch

a are different for these two, when we
consider an object at a finite distance. The distance between the two centres,
OC = Re is the radius of the Earth. Let X be an object at a distance R
from Earths centre. Further, let d be the distance of X from the observer
at O. Then,
Bhagola-sanku
= CX = R cos z,

(11.25)

Dr.ggola-sanku

(11.26)

where z and z are the zenith distances of X for bhagola and dr.ggola. The
relation between the two is given by
Dr.ggola-sanku

= Bhagola-sanku
Earth-radius.

(11.27)

It may be noted that the linear measure of the ch


ay
a-sanku

, which is CB
with reference to bhagola and OA with reference to dr.ggola, is the same. In
other words,
d sin z = R sin z,

(11.28)

724

11. Gnomonic Shadow

where d, the dr.kkarn.a, is the distance of the object from the observer on the
surface of the Earth and is given by
p
OA2 + OX 2
d =
q
=
R2 sin2 z + (R cos z Re )2 .
(11.29)

Moreover, the procedure for obtaining dr.kkarn.a is the same as that for the
computation of manda-karn.a using pratiman. d.ala, with the radius of the
Earth playing the role of ucca-nca-vr.tta-vy
as
ardha (radius of the epicycle).
When R and Re are in yojan
a-s, d is called the sphut.a-yojana-karn.a. As is
clear from the figure, the drkkarn.a d is smaller than R. Hence, the zenith
distance z for O, is larger than that for C which is z, since d sin z = R sin z.
For future purposes, we note that
d R Re cos z,

(11.30)

up to first order in RRe . When the observer takes the distance between him
and the object X as the trijy

11.9

Earths radius and Chaya-lambana

It may be noted that the radius of the Earth plays the role of antya-phala,
when karn.a is taken to be trijy
a. When d is taken to be trijy
a and the
shadow R sin z is also trijy
a, then,
Re = R sin(z z)
R(z z)
= z z

(in min.),

(11.37)

when
z is small. Hence, the radius of the Earth in yojan
a-s is the
ch
ay
a-lambana in minutes. Also, there is not much difference between the
sphut.a-yojana-karn.a d (distance between the observer and the planet), and
the madhya-yojana-karn. a R (distance between the planet and the centre of
the Earth). For the Sun, it is stated that
1
Re

(11.38)
R

Essentially this is the horizontal parallax. Then ch
ay
a-lambana is the product of the above and the shadow, R sin z, when d is approximated by R in
the denominator. If ch

a-lambana of the dr.nman

. d.ala is taken as the hypotenuse, then as we shall see later (section 11.37), its sine and cosine will
be nati and lambana.

Here the correction to the shadow and the gnomon (mah

disc, where S is the centre and P and Q are upper and lower points of the
disc. = P S is the angular semi-diameter of the Sun. OS is the shadow
corresponding to the centre and OP is the shadow corresponding to the
point P , which is what is observed. Then the corrected shadow (ch
ay
a) and
the gnomon (mah
a-sanku)

are given by
R sin(z ) = R sin z (R cos z ),

(11.39)

R cos(z ) = R cos z + (R sin z ),

(11.40)

and

where the second terms are the differentials of the sine and cosine functions, the khanda-jy
a-s. The corrected mah
a-sanku

and ch
ay
a are stated
to be pertaining to the dr.g-vis.aya (actually observed) i.e., related to what is
actually observed.
The increase in size of the mah
a-sanku

can also be viewed in the following


manner (illustrated in Figure 11.8). If the Sun were a point object at S,
then the length of the sanku
is OB corresponding to the observed length of
the shadow OC. Since it is actually the upper limb P which corresponds to
the tip of the shadow at C, the mah
a-sanku
is effectively increased to OA.

In the above, the khan.d.a-jy


a-s are evaluated at z , the tip of the arc P S,
whereas they should be evaluated at a point midway between P and S for
better accuracy. However, the difference between the two would be small.
So, from the lambana and the khand.a-jy
a-s corresponding to the radius of
the Sun, the corrected gnomon and shadow corresponding to the upper point
of the solar disc in the dr.ggola are obtained. The corrected shadow of the
12-inch gnomon will be the corrected shadow (ch
ay
a) as obtained above,
multiplied by 12 and divided by the gnomon (mah
a-sanku).

11.11

Vipartacchaya : Reverse shadow

The procedure to obtain the time to elapse before sunset or the time elapsed
after sunrise from the observed shadow of the 12-inch gnomon is termed
vipartacch
ay
a or the reverse shadow. Obviously, the process is the reverse
of obtaining the actual shadow from the time, which was indicated in the
previous sections (11.310).

respectively. These are dr.g-vis.aya and correspond to the upper limb of the
Sun. The same quantities corresponding to the centre of the Sun are
R cos(z ) =

R sin z = R sin(z ) + R cos(z )

R cos z = R sin(z ) R sin(z ).

(11.45)

These correspond to the dr.ggola. We have to obtain R sin z and R cos z


corresponding to bhagola. These are stated to be

. Hence a factor of cos z (or cos z to this order) is
the Text takes RRe = 863
missing in the given correction term for R sin z in (11.46)
Again,
R cos z = d cos z + Re
(R Re cos z ) cos z + Re

(R cos z ) + Re sin2 z .

(11.49)

Hence a factor of sin2 z is missing in the correction term for R cos z given
in (11.47).
The same procedure is to be adopted for computing the latitude and the
colatitude of the place also.
Now R cos z is given by the expression
R cos z = R cos cos cos H + R sin sin .

(11.50)

Thus,
R sin u = R cos H =

R.R sin R sin


R cos z.R2

.
R cos R cos
R cos R cos

(11.51)

Here u is the time to elapse before the Sun reaches the unman.d.ala or sixo clock circle. Since all the quantities in the RHS are known, u can be
determined. The second term in the RHS of the above equation is the carajy
a (R sin c ). This is calculated separately and from that the arc c , the
cara, corresponding to time interval between six-o clock circle and sunset,
is determined. The sum of u and c , or the difference between them2 gives
the time to elapse before sunset from the given instant, in angular measure.

11.12

Noon-time shadow

The distance between the celestial equator and the zenith on the north-south
circle is the latitude . The declination is the distance between the planet
and the celestial equator. The meridian zenith distance is z.

When the Suns declination is north the cara has to be added and when it is south it
has to be subtracted.

Consider Figure 11.11. Draw a perpendicular GD from G to the plane of the

(R tan sin ) which is the product of cara-jy

GD = OC = R sin .

Consider the planar triangle St GD. This is a right angled triangle where

Let the diurnal circle intersect the north-south circle at M . The north-south

R sin SM = R sin H sin(P S) = R sin(ZS) sin(90 a),

Sama-sanku:

Great gnomon at the prime


vertical

In Figure 11.13, sama-man.d.ala is the prime vertical passing through E, Z


and W . Celestial equator is the great circle passing through E, W and a
point U on the north-south circle, such that ZU is the latitude of the place
(). When the declination of the Sun is zero, the celestial equator is the
diurnal circle. When the declination is northerly and less than the latitude,
corresponding to D1 in the figure, the rising and setting will be to the north
of E and W respectively and the midday will be to the south of the zenith.
Then, the diurnal circle cuts the sama-man.d.ala at two points, once before
the noon and once after. The mah
a-sanku
at the time corresponding to the
Sun at S (and S not shown in the figure) on D1 in Figure 11.13 is termed
the sama-sanku.

second circle and is given by
R sin = R sin i sin .

(11.89)

This can be found if the arc R is given; conversely, the arc R can be found
when the perpendicular distance R sin is known. This is the trair

celestial equator. This is so because this circle passes through the poles of
both the digvr.tta and the celestial equator (B and P respectively). Let the
tiryag-vr.tta intersect the is..ta-digvr.tta and the celestial equator at C and D
respectively. Let the arc BP = x. Then, as B is the pole of the is..ta-digvr.tta,
BC = 90 or P C = 90 x. As P D = 90 , CD = x. This is indeed the angle
between the digvr.tta and the celestial equator at Y (X Y U ). The distance
between P on the meridian and the viparta-digvr.tta ZB is given by
R sin P F = R sin a cos ,

(11.90)

the inclination of the viparta-digvr.tta with the


as P Z = 90 , and P ZB,
meridian is a.

744

11. Gnomonic Shadow

Let the angle between the tiryag-vr.tta and the horizon be i. Then the angle
between the tiryag-vr.tta and the viparta-digvr.tta is 90 i. It follows that
R sin P F is also given by
R sin P F = R sin x cos i.

(11.91)

Equating the above two expressions,


R sin x cos i = R sin a cos .

(11.92)

Now P N = is the perpendicular arc from P on the tiryag-vr.tta, on the


horizon, which is inclined to it at angle i. Therefore,
R sin x sin i = R sin .
From (11.92) and (11.93), we get
q
R sin x = R2 sin2 a cos2 + R2 sin2 ,

(11.93)

(11.94)

which is what has been stated. This is the maximum separation between
the is..ta-digvr.tta and the celestial equator, as the angle betweeen them is
x. Now the arc BC on the tiryag-vr.tta and the arc BC on the horizon
are both 90 . Hence arc CC = i, the angle between the two vr.tta-s. Then
CZ = 90 i, and as C is at 90 from Y , the intersection between the
celestial equator and the is..ta-digvr.tta, ZY = i. Hence, the ascent of the
tiryag-vr.tta from the horizon on the digvr.tta = i, is the same as the descent
of the ghat.ika-vr.tta from the zenith on the digvr.tta. Let the arc XY = .
XG is the perpendicular arc from X on the digvr.tta on the celestial equator.
R sin(XG) = R sin = R sin(XY ) sin x
= R sin sin x.

(11.95)

Now the perpendicular arc from Z on the digvr.tta on the celestial equator
= ZU = . Therefore,
R sin ZU = R sin = R sin(ZY ) sin x
= R sin i sin x.

(11.96)

R sin and R sin i are called the sth


anya-s or the representatives of the
apakrama and aks.ajy
a on the digvr.tta. Now the zenith distance3

= i .

If the declination is southern, z = i + .

When the declination is south and > 90 , the diurnal circle is below
the horizon and there is no gnomon. When the northern declination is
greater than the latitude, the midday would be to the north of the zenith
and there will be gnomon in the southern direction. However, in this case,
gnomon will occur only when a

The different possible cases (for northerly declinations) are depicted in Figures 11.19(a)(c).

But the maximum angle between the north-south circle and is..ta-digvr.tta on

which intersects the horizon at C. Now, draw the nata-samaman. d.ala which
is a vertical through Z and C. D is a point on the horizon at 90 from

Consider the great circle (tiryag-vr.tta) through B and G. We show that BG

equator is at 90 from P . Therefore G is the pole of nata-vr.tta. Hence
BG passes through the poles of nata-vr.tta and digvr.tta. Thus, BG is the
perpendicular to both the nata-vr.tta and is..ta-digvr.tta.
Now X is the pole of tiryag-vr.tta, as it is at 90 from B and G.4 Therefore
XF = 90 . But XA = 90 z. Hence, AF = z, where z is the maximum
separation between the horizon and the tiryag-vr.tta (as BA = BF = 90 ).

Therefore, z = D BG.
The tiryag-vr.tta meets the is..ta-digvr.tta also at F .
Then,
180 = F F = ZF + ZF
= ZF + ZA + AF
= ZF + 90 + z.
Therefore, ZF = 90z or F F = z. This is the elevation of the tiryag-vr.tta
from the horizon on the is..ta-digvr.tta. As this maximum separation occurs
at 90 , BF = 90 . It is clear from the figure that the angle between the
tiryag-vr.tta and the vidig-vr.tta is 90 z.
Now C is the pole of ZD. Therefore CY = 90 , and the angle at Y is 90 .
Since the angle between ZP and Y P is H and ZP = 90 , the sine of
the zenith distance of the point Y , denoted by , is
sin = sin(90 ) sin H
= cos sin H.

Therefore,
cos =

1 cos2 sin2 H.

(11.118)

(11.119)

Let CS = be the distance between north-south circle and nata-vr.tta at


the horizon. It is easy to see that N C = ED = , where C is the point on
the horizon diametrically opposite to C.
4

The point X is at 90 from G, since G is the pole of nata-vr.tta.

752

11. Gnomonic Shadow

Note:
(i) C being the pole of ZDG, DY = 90 is the angle between nata-vr.tta
and the horizon. Therefore
sin = sin P N = sin(90 ) sin(P C).
Hence,
sin P C =

sin

cos

(11.120)

(ii) Now H is the angle between the north-south circle and the nata-vr.tta.

sin =

Again, in Figure 11.21, AE = a is is..ta


gr
a. The angle between the natasama-vr.tta and digvr.tta on the horizon is given by CA = . It may be noted
that this is also equal to the angle between nata-dr.kks.epa-vr.tta and vyastadr.kks.epa-vr.tta. Since B is the pole of the the digvr.tta, clearly = 90 a.
Therefore,
sin = sin(90 a)
= cos( + a)

= (cos cos a sin sin a).

(11.123)

When a

gr
a a is to the north of east, = 90 +a and sin = cos cos a+
sin sin a. Thus sin is determined in terms of known quantities, since sin a
is given and sin is known from (11.122).
Now, let GB = x and GL be the perpendicular arc from G to vidig-vr.tta.
Then sin DG, which is the same as sin ZY , is given by
sin = sin z sin x.

(11.124)

11.21 Problem two: Sa

Also
sin GL = sin x cos z,

(11.125)

as z and 90 z are the angles between tiryag-vr.ttaand horizon, and tiryagvr.tta and vidig-vr.tta, respectively. But the angle between ZG and ZL is
and ZG = 90 + . (For, GY = 90 , G being the pole of nata-vr.tta).
Therefore,
sin GL = sin(90 + ) sin

sin x cos z = sin cos .

(11.134)

Derivation of the Aks.a

Consider Figure 11.22. The distance of the planet X from the north-south
circle is
R sin = ch
ay
a-kot.i = R sin z cos a.
(11.145)
Now, draw a small circle through X parallel to the north-south circle. This
will bear the same relation to the north-south circle, as the diurnal circle
does to the equator. Here, R sin = R sin z cos a, is the equivalent of the
kr
anti = R sin . The radius of this circle called kot.i circle is equivalent to
dyujy
a, R cos . The arc W X = = kot.i = 90 and the radius of the
kot.i circle is equal to
p
(11.146)
R sin = R sin (90 ) = R2 R2 sin2 z cos2 a.

This is the ch
ay
a-kot.i-kot.i. If we conceive of a right-angled triangle with the
radius of the kot.i circle as the hypotenuse, and ch
ay
a-bhuj
a R sin z sin a as
the bhuj
a, kot.i of this on the kot.i circle is the sanku,

because,
p
R2 R2 sin2 z cos2 a R2 sin2 z sin2 a = R cos z.
(11.147)
Similarly, if the apakrama R sin is the bhuj
a, then the kot.i of this (apakramakot.i) on this circle is R cos cos H, since,
p
p
R2 R2 sin2 z cos2 a R2 sin2 =
R2 R2 sin2 H cos2 R2 sin2
= R cos cos H,

(11.148)

where we have used R sin z cos a = R sin H cos .


It may be noted that R cos cos H is the distance between the planet X and
the unman.d.ala P W . It can also be visualized as Rsine of 90 H on the
diurnal circle (whose radius is R cos ).
The aks.a, R sin , is then obtained from the relation
R sin =

true when declination and a
sa
gr
a a are in opposite directions from X.
But, when they are in the same direction (when X is to the north of samaman.d.ala), the second term in the numerator of (11.155) is negative. However,
when the planet is between the unman.d.ala and the horizon (H > 90 , a is
to the north of sama-man.d.ala), it is positive. Note that the aks.a on the kot.i
circle is
R sin . R cos z + R sin z sin a. R cos cos H

Squaring, we get

(1 sin2 ) cos2 cos2 H = cos2 z + sin2 sin2 2 cos z sin sin ,


or,
sin2 (sin2 + cos2 cos2 H) 2 cos z sin . sin + cos2 z cos2 cos2 H = 0.
Solving this quadratic equation, we get the same expression as stated above.5

R sin(90 ) = R sin (R sin)1 (R sin CX) (R sin)1 (R sin P C) .
(11.181)
Using (11.177) and (11.178), the above reduces to





1 R cos z
1 R sin
R cos = R sin (R sin)
(R sin)
. (11.182)
cos
cos
In the above expression, the RHS is known, since cos is known (refer to
(11.119) in section 11.21). From R cos , the apakrama R sin is determined.
Now, a

gr
a-kot. i is determined from the relation
R sin H cos
,
(11.183)
R cos a =
sin z
as usual. From this, a
sa
gr
a is calculated.
When X is to the south of the intersection between svadesa-nata-vr.tta and
nata-vr.tta, CX < 90 (as in Figure 11.21). Then (R sin)1 (R sin CX) =
CX, whereas (R sin)1 )(R sin P C) continues to be 180 P C. Then the
distance between X and south pole, Q (not shown in the figure), will be
XQ = CX + 180 P C.
It may be noted that along the nata-vr.tta, P Q = 180 = P C + CQ. Therefore, CQ = 180 P C. Hence,
XQ = CX + CQ = CX + 180 P C.

(11.184)

Now, the arc corresponding to dyujy


a is given by
90 + = CX + (180 P C)
= sum of the c
apa-s.

(11.185)

Therefore,
R sin(90 + ) = R cos = R sin(CX + 180 P C),
where
R cos z

cos

and
R sin(180 P C) =

From this, the apakrama, R sin , is determined and a

K
ala-lagna, Udaya-lagna and Madhya-lagna

The methods for deriving the k


ala-lagna (time elapsed after the rising of
the first point of Aries), udaya-lagna (the longitude of the orient ecliptic
point) and madhya-lagna (the longitude of the meridian ecliptic point) are
explained in this section.
In Figure 11.26, the ecliptic cuts the horizon at L1 and L2 which are the
udaya and asta-lagna-s respectively. Lagna-sama-man.d.ala is the vertical
L1 ZL2 . Let M1 and M2 be at 90 from L1 and L2 , respectively, on the
horizon. The vertical M1 ZM2 is the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta. The ecliptic cuts the
dr.kks.epa-vr.tta at V . Now L1 is at 90 from M1 and Z, and hence is the pole
of the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta. Therefore V is also at 90 from L1 and Z V L1 = 90 .
Thus, the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta is perpendicular to the ecliptic. Naturally, the pole
of the ecliptic, K1 (northern r
asi-k
u.ta to be precise), is on this vr.tta and at

90 from V . Hence,
K1 Z + ZV = 90 .
(11.200)
But,
K1 Z + K1 M2 = 90 .

(11.201)

Therefore, K1 M2 = ZV . In other words,


Altitude of the r
asi-k
u.ta (K1 ) = zv ,

(11.202)

where zv is the zenith distance of V (vitribha-lagna or dr.kks.epa-lagna). Further it may be noted that when the vernal equinox is at E, K1 is on the
7

When the declination is south, it is clear that z > z0 and z = z0 + ||.

is the obliquity of the ecliptic. It is easy to see that K1 and S2 are on the
same secondary to the ecliptic and the equator (which is same as the horizon
in the figure), and that they rise and set together. Hence, their hour angles
remain the same at all times. This is true of the points S1 and K2 also.
The diurnal circle of S2 has radius R sin , and that of K1 has radius R cos .

This is the portion of the sanku

unman.d.ala and the ks.itija.

774

11. Gnomonic Shadow

When the northern r


asi-k
u.ta is at K1 , its gnomon at the equator, which is
the same as the perpendicular distance to the unman.d.ala K1 N1 , is given by
K1 N1 = R sin cos H,

(11.208)

where N1 is the foot of the perpendicular from K1 on the unman.d.ala, as


shown in Figure 11.28(b). This has to be multiplied by cos to obtain the
portion of the gnomon, K1 N1 , above the unman.d.ala, as the angle between
the unman.d.ala and the horizon at the desired place is equal to the latitude
of the place ().
Hence, the gnomon of the northern r
asi-k
u.t a at the desired place, which is
the dr.kks.epa R sin ZV , is given by
1N
1
R sin ZV = K1 N1 + K
= R(cos sin cos H + sin cos ),

(11.209)

where H is the k
ala-lagna or the hour angle of the northern r
asi-k
u.ta K1 .
Now, consider Figure 11.26. As V L1 = L1 M1 = 90 , the maximum divergence between the horizon and the ecliptic is
V M1 = 90 ZV.

(11.210)

Considering the planet at X on the ecliptic, we have


R sin V M1 = R cos ZV = Pram
an.a,
R = Trijy
a = Pram
an.a-phala,
R sin XT

= Gnomon of the planet = Icch

R sin XL1 is the distance between the horizon and the planet on the ecliptic,
and is also the icch

Therefore,

R sin XT

R. R sin XT

(11.211)
R sin V M

We have to find XL1 from this. Udaya-lagna is the longitude of L1 . Therefore,
R sin XL1 =

Udaya-lagna = L1
= X + XL1
= p + XL1 ,

(11.212)

11.31 K
ala-lagna, Udaya-lagna and Madhya-lagna

775

where p = X is the longitude of the planet. Thus the udaya-lagna has


been determined in terms of the gnomon of the planet and the dr.kks.epa,
which involves the k
ala-lagna H.
It has already been shown (recall the discussion in sections 11.4 and 11.5)
that the gnomon corresponding to the planet is given by
R sin XT

= cos Unnata-jy
a


sin sin
,
= R cos cos cos Hp +
cos cos

(11.213)

where Hp = Z P X is the hour angle of the planet. The second term in the
bracket corresponds to the ascensional difference.9
When the planet is in the western hemisphere at X , as shown in Figure
11.26, X = L2 + X L2 , where X and L2 are measured eastwards.
Therefore,
Asta-lagna = L2
= X X L2

= p X L 2 ,

(11.214)

where X L2 is measured as described earlier. The same considerations apply


when the planet is below the horizon.
Consider the motion of the planet (Sun) as shown in Figure 11.29. Here
it transits the north-south circle below the horizon at Xm , rises at Xr and
reaches the unman.d.ala at Xu . The angle Xm P Xr (or arc Xm Xr on the
diurnal circle) corresponds to half the duration of the night, and the angle
X P Xr corresponds to the portion of the night yet to pass. The difference
between them, Xm P X, is the hour angle Hp and X P Xu = 90 Hp . Find
R cos Hp (cosine of the hour angle). The cara corresponds to Xr P Xu and
is given by
R sin sin
.
(11.215)
R sin(Xr P Xu ) =
cos cos
Then the sanku
of the planet X is given by


R sin sin
.
(11.216)
R sin(XT ) = R cos cos cos Hp
cos cos
9

Hp is found from the time after sunrise. H = Hp + R.A. of X, where R.A. (Right
Ascension) is obtained readily from the longitude. Hence the udaya-lagna would be related
to known quantities.

When the declination is south, the cara has to be added. As shown earlier
(11.211), if L1 is the udaya-lagna,
R sin XL1 =

R. R sin(XT )
.
R cos ZV

(11.217)

In the RHS of the above equation, while the numerator is known from
(11.216), the denominator has to be calculated from R sin ZV (dr.kks.epa),
which in turn is given by (11.209). Then the udaya-lagna is given by
L1 = X XL1
= p XL1 ,

(11.218)

where p is the longitude of the planet. The asta-lagna is also determined


in a similar manner and is given by
L2 = p + X L2 .

(11.219)

In this case, X is in the western hemisphere below the horizon. The


dr.kks.epa-lagna is exactly midway between the udaya and asta-lagna-s and is
at the intersection of the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta with the ecliptic.

In other words, madhya-k


ala is the time elapsed after the meridian transit

W

= 90o U,

(11.231)

where U has been obtained in (11.230). The ecliptic cuts the meridian at
M . The longitude of this point, represented by M , is the madhya-lagna.
Consider the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta W KIE in Figure 11.32 passing through east
and west points and intersecting the ecliptic at I. K is the northern r
asi
k
u.ta, the pole of the ecliptic. M is at 90 from both E and K. Hence, it is
the pole of this r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta. In that case, the arc EI is perpendicular to
the ecliptic at I, and EI = is given by
R sin = R sin sin (90 )
= R sin cos .

(11.232)

Normally, we draw perpendiculars from points on the ecliptic and calculate


the bhuj

R cos are the equivalents of apakrama-jy

and madhya-lagna respectively. EL1 is related to the azimuth of L1 . The
udaya-lagna-jy
a, R sin(EL1 ) is found in the same way as ark
agr
a. Just as in
the case of the ark
agr
a, udaya-lagna-jy
a is given by
R sin EL1 =

R sin(L1 )
,
cos

(11.235)

where L1 is the declination of L1 (determined from R sin L1 = R sin L1 sin ).


The madhya-jy
a is the Rsine of the zenith distance of the madhya-lagna.

Figure 11.33: Determination of dr.kks.epa from the udaya-lagna and madhyalagna.


As the madhya-lagna M is on the meridian, the madhya-jy
a R sin ZM is
found in the same manner as the madhy

a (noon shadow) of the

11.34 Dr.kks.epa and Kot.i

Sun, which is the meridian zenith distance of the Sun:


Madhya-jy
a = R sin ZM
= R sin( |M |),

(11.236)

M being the declination of the madhya-lagna. This can be found as M has


been determined.
Now the maximum divergence between the dr.kks.epa-vr.tta and the northsouth circle is
SM1 = EL1 = .
(11.237)
This is also equal to the angle between prime vertical EZ and lagna-samaman.d.ala or dr.kks.epa-sama-man. d.ala, L1 Z. Now,
Udaya-jy
a = R sin EL1
= R sin SM1
= R sin .

(11.238)

Using the rule of three, we have


R sin M V
R sin SM1

R sin ZM
.
R sin ZS = R

(11.239)

Therefore,
R sin M V

= R sin(ZM ) sin

(11.240)

This is the interval between the madhya-lagna and the dr.kks.epa on the ecliptic and is termed bhuj
a. Now V is the dr.kks.epa, L2 is the asta-lagna. There
fore V L2 = 90 and
M L2 = V L2 V M = 90 V M.
Therefore, R sin M L2 = R cos M V. This is the Rsine of the portion of the
ecliptic between the north-south circle and the horizon.
Consider the spherical triangle ZMQ, where MQ is the perpendicular arc
from the madhya-lagna M to the lagna-sama-man.d.ala. Now,

V ZM

M ZQ
= V ZQ
= 90 .

(11.241)

784

11. Gnomonic Shadow

Therefore,
R sin M Q = R sin ZM sin(90 )
= R sin ZM cos .

But, we had R sin M V = R sin ZM sin . Therefore,

R sin M Q =

(11.242)

(11.243)

This is the distance between the madhya-lagna and dr.kks.epa-sama-man. d.ala


or lagna-sama-man. d.ala. Consider the quadrants L2 V and L2 Z. M Q and
V Z are perpendicular arcs from M and V on L2 V to L2 Z. Therefore, using
the rule of three,10 we have
R sin ZV
R sin L2 V = R

R sin M Q
.
R sin L2 M = R cos M V

(11.244)

R sin(M Q) R

R cos(M V )

(11.245)

Therefore,
R sin ZV =

This gives the dr.kks.epa R sin ZV in terms of madhya-jy


a and udaya-jy
a which
are in turn determined from udaya-lagna and madhya-lagna. This is the
maximum divergence between the ecliptic and the lagna-sama-man. d.ala.
Consider the quadrants L2 V and L2 M1 (along the ecliptic and horizon).
Again, applying the rule of three, we get
R sin M S = R cos M Z
R sin V M1

R sin L2 M1 = R
R sin L2 M = R cos M V
Therefore,

R cos M Z R

This is the dr.kks.epa-kot.i which is also the maximum divergence between the
ecliptic and the horizon. This is also the dr.kks.epa-sanku,

Second correction for the Moon

Here a second correction is applied to the Moon to obtain the dvitya-sphut.a


of the Moon with respect to the centre of the Earth. This is essentially the
Evection term, calculated along the same lines as in Tantrasangraha,

except
for a modification which takes into account Moons latitude. The ch
ay
alambana is then calculated taking the above correction also into account.
The procedure for the second correction is similar to the calculation of the
manda-sphut. a with the centre of the bhagola serving as the ucca, which is
taken to be in the direction of the Sun. The distance between this and the
centre of the Earth, which is the radius of the epicycle, is a continuously
varying quantity and is given by
R
cos(S U ),
(11.250)
2
in yojan
a-s, where S and U are the longitudes of the Sun and the apogee
of Moon (candrocca). Here, the mean distance between the Moon and the
centre of the bhagola is 10R = 34380 yojan
a-s. The actual distance between
the same points is 10K, where K is the manda-karn.a in minutes.
For the present we ignore Moons latitude. In Figure 11.35, C is the centre
of the Earth, separated from the centre of the bhagola (CZ ) by a distance
R
cos(S U )
(in yojan
a-s).
(11.251)

Z = S (Suns longitude). The manda-sphut.a of
A is the Mes.a

Moon is at M1 . Hence ACZ M1 = M (Moons manda-sphut. a). CZ M1 =

r=

same manner (by multiplying it with cos ). The bhuj

The dvitya-sphut.a-karn.a with viks.epa is given by

Thus the dvitya-sphut.a is obtained. The sign of the RHS is determined by


(S U ) and (M S ). When (S U ) is in first or fourth quadrant,
cos(S U ) is positive. Then the RHS is positive if (M S ) is in first or
second quadrant (the bright fortnight) and negative if (M S ) is in third
or fourth quadrant (the dark fortnight). When (S U ) is in second or
third quadrant, it is the other way round.
The distance of the planet from the centre of the Earth is actually the dvityasphut.a-karn.a, instead of 10K. Hence, the mean motion of dvitya-sphut.a is
10K mean motion of Moon

Thus, the true Moon on the circle with its centre at the centre of the Earth
has been calculated.

In Figure 11.36, V is the dr.kks.epa-lagna, P is the planet and K is the
pole of the ecliptic. P is the foot of the perpendicular arc from Z to the
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta through the planet. The maximum divergence between the
dr.kks.epa-vr.tta and this r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta is R sin(P V ), where P and V
are the longitudes of the planet and the dr.kks.epa-lagna. This corresponds
to the arc KV = 90 . Hence, the divergence R sin(ZP ) called dr.ggati-jy
a
or dr.ggati corresponding to the arc KZ = 90 ZV , is given by
R sin(P V ) R sin(90 ZV )
R
= R sin(P V ) cos ZV.

If z is the zenith distance of the planet P along the dr.nman

through it, and is the angle between the dr.nman

then
Dr.kks.epa = R sin(ZV ) = R sin sin z,
Dr.ggati-jy
a = R sin(ZP ) = R cos sin z.

(11.263)

Hence
R sin z = Ch

(11.265)

Thus the ch

Now ch

In fact, the nati and lambana can be directly calculated by multiplying

dr.kkarn.a (the actual distance between the observer and the planet). This
can be understood as follows. By definition, ch

When the planet is to the east of the dr.kks.epa V , the parallax in longitude
P Q is also towards the east. That is, the effect of parallax is to increase the
longitude as shown in Figure 11.38(a). If it is to the west of the dr.kks.epa
as in Figure 11.38(b), the parallax P Q is also towards the west and hence
the apparent longitude will decrease. Similarly the nati P Q will be towards
south, if the planet is in southern hemisphere, and it will be towards north if
it is in northern hemisphere. (Here it should be noted that the increase or decrease in the latitude of the planet will depend upon the relative orientation
of the vertical through the planet and the ecliptic).

with OC = R sin and the radius of the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta is RC = R cos .
If PE is the projection of the planet on the ecliptic, then PE L1 = L1 P ,
which is the difference between the longitudes of the lagna and the planet.
The sanku

of PE (planet with no latitude) is R sin PE M , where M is the

The interstice between the zenith and the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta along dr.kks.epavr.tta is the nati. This is the equivalent of the Rsine of the meridian zenith
distance. Thus,
R sin(PE M ) =

N ati = R sin(RZ)
= R sin(ZV ),

(11.277)

794

11. Gnomonic Shadow

since RZ = ZV . The kot.i of this is the parama-sanku

and is given by
R cos(RZ) = R sin(RM1 ).

(11.278)

Parama-sanku
is the equivalent of noon shadow. Then the sanku,

R cos(P Z),
is stated to be equal to
R cos(RZ)

R cos R cos(ZV ) R R cos(V PE )

,
R
R

(11.279)

where R R cos(V PE ) is the sara corresponding to the arc V PE in the


ecliptic.
This can be derived as follows. We draw PE PE perpendicular to OV . Then,
OPE = OPE cos(V PE ) = R cos(V PE ).

(11.280)

Then,

Sara
= V PE = OV OPE = R R cos(V PE ).

(11.281)

Similarly, draw P P perpendicular to RC. Then RP is parallel to V PE


(and is in the plane of the dr.kks.epa-man.d.ala), and it is the sara reduced to
the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta as given by
RP = (cos )(R R cos(V PE )).

(11.282)

Draw P Zp and RZR perpendicular to OZ. P Q is perpendicular to RZR . It


is easy to see that PE PE and P P are parallel to the plane of the horizon (in
fact parallel to OL1 ), and OZP is the sanku
corresponding to P . Therefore,
nku
Sa
= OZP = OZR ZP ZR .

(11.283)

Now OZR = R cos(RZ). As the inclination of the ecliptic with the prime
vertical is the angle corresponding to the arc ZV , we have
ZP ZR = P Q

R cos(ZV ) R R cos(V PE )

(11.286)

Hence,
nku

This is similar to the standard relation
R cos z = R [sin sin + cos cos cos H],

(11.288)

when it is realized that ZV is the equivalent of aks.a , latitude is the


equivalent of the declination , and ZK P = V PE is the equivalent of the
hour angle. The parama-sanku

R cos(RZ) is the equivalent of the noongnomon.


When R cos(RZ) is used as the multiplicand in the second term (instead of
R cos(ZV )) it is stated that the divisor should not be trijy
a, but viks.epa-kot.i
corrected by the difference between the horizon and the unman.d.ala. This
correction is the equivalent of the Rsine of the ascensional difference on the
diurnal circle, and is given by
R sin(ZV ) sin cos

cos(ZV ) cos
So, the divisor should be
R cos +

R sin(ZV ) sin

as RZ = ZV . Geometrically this can be seen as follows. Let V , R be


the feet of the perpendiculars from V and R on the plane of the horizon.
Let RC meet the plane of the horizon at Ph . Then, OCPh is a right angled

This has to be applied to the parv

the true mid-eclipse. The lambana is again calculated at this value of the
parv

anta to obtain the true parv

corresponding to the second iteration. This iterative process is carried on till
the successive values of the parv

Then, the desired time t is given by
t = tm t,

where tm corresponds to the parv


anta or the middle of the eclipse. Now in
calculating t, is involved. But, this is unknown for it is the value of nati
+ viks.epa at the desired instant tm t. Hence, an iterative process is used
to find t. First find at tm . From this t is calculated, as explained above.
This is the first approximation to t. From this is calculated at tm t,
and t is determined from this. That would be the second approximation
to t. The iterative process is carried out till t determined does not vary
significantly2 in successive iterations. Then, as mentioned earlier, tm t
is the desired time corresponding to a given eclipsed portion.
Both at the beginning and the end of the eclipse, the bimb
antara is equal to
half the sum of the orbs of Sun and Moon. The times corresponding to the
beginning or the end are calculated in exactly the manner described above.
For a solar eclipse, M S = 0 , for a lunar eclipse, M S = 180 .
When either of the eclipses occurs near the sunrise or the sunset, M and
S are calculated at that time. Now, consider the solar eclipse. If M > S
at sunrise, middle of the eclipse is not visible. If M < S , the middle is
visible. At sunset, if M > S , middle of the eclipse is visible. For a lunar
eclipse, S is replaced by S + 180 .

The accuracy is set to desired value, which could be as gross a one-hundredth or as


fine as one-billionth part.

from this small circle (ch

components. (i) a

with the diurnal circle (which coincides with the small circle at the equator)
(ii) a
ks.a-valana, which is due to the inclination of the diurnal circle with the
small circle, and (iii) valana due to the viks.epa of the Moon.

12.6

Ayana-valana

Consider a place on the equator. Without loss of generality, we take the


vernal equinox, at the east point (see Figure 12.5), the winter solstice
on the meridian, and the Sun situated between them on the ecliptic. The
Moon without latitude is also situated on the ecliptic and touches the
solar disc at Sc on the ecliptic. S is the point where the solar disc intersects
the ecliptic. The eclipse starts at Sc and S Sc is the a
yana-valana and it is
southwards in the figure. The angle between the ecliptic and the celestial
equator (prime vertical) is . Let S = , be the longitude of the Sun. Let
rs be the angular radius of the solar disc.
The distances of the centre of the Sun S and the point Sc from the celestial
equator are given by
R sin s = R sin sin .
R sin sc

= R sin( + rs ) sin .

(12.22)
(12.23)

Therefore S Sc , which is the difference between the two, is given by

Now we consider a place with latitude, . Here the diurnal circle is inclined
to the ch

a-kot.i-vr.tta (the small circle parallel to the prime vertical) at an
angle as shown in Figure 12.6. Then a
ks.a-valana, rs sin , is the distance
along the north-south direction from the point on the diurnal circle to the
ch
ay
a-kot.i-vr.tta. Here rs represents the radius of the Suns disc (P Q, as
shown in the figure). The expression for R sin given in the Text is
R sin = R sin sin H.

(12.26)

It is further mentioned that the aks.a

This is the distance between PM on the celestial equator and the vertical
small circle passing through P , a point on the celestial equator corresponding to hour angle H. This may be understood as follows. The distance between PM and the prime vertical is R sin . Similarly, the distance between
P and the prime vertical is R sin cos H, as P E = 90 H. Therefore, the
distance between PM and the small vertical circle is
R sin (1 cos H).

Graphical chart of the eclipse

Valana is calculated for the times of commencement and culmination of the


eclipse, as well as for any other desired instant. Then, the eclipsed orb (solar
disc in the solar eclipse) is drawn and the local east-west line (ch
ay
a-kot.ivr.tta) is drawn through its centre (as in Figure 12.8). Choose a point at a
distance of valana from the point on the eclipsed orb which is on the local
east-west line. The valana line passes through the chosen point and the
centre of the eclipsed orb. Draw the orb of the eclipsing planet with its
centre on the valana line at a distance of bimb
antara from the centre of the
eclipsed orb. Then, the eclipsed and bright portion of the eclipsed orb can
be easily found as indicated in Figure 12.8. Here it is not mandatory that
the valana corresponding to the actual radius of the eclipsed orb should be
calculated. It can be calculated for any suitable radius, and the valana line
can be drawn suitably.

Lunar eclipse

In the lunar eclipse, the Moons orb is being eclipsed and the Earths shadow
is the eclipser. The diameter of the Earths shadow at the path of the Moon is
called tamo-bim
. ba (orb of darkness). As the Earths shadow and the Moons
orb are at the same distance from the Earth, the nati and lambana are the
same for the eclipser and the eclipsed. Hence, they cancel out and do not
figure in the calculation. All the other rules are the same for the solar and
lunar eclipses.
Thus the procedures for the computation of eclipses have been stated. It is
noted that there is a correction called paridhi-sphut. a for both the Sun and
the Moon. Nothing more is stated about its magnitude or nature, except
that it would affect the longitudes of the Sun and the Moon and thereby the
time of the eclipse.

Vyatp

13.1

Occurence of Vyatpata

Vyatp
ata is said to occur when the (magnitudes of) declinations of the Sun
and Moon are equal, and when one of them is increasing and the other is
decreasing. This can happen when one of these bodies is in an odd quadrant,
and the other is in an even quadrant.

13.2

Derivation of declination of the Moon

A method of computing the declination of the Moon (which has a latitude)


has already been described. Here, a new method to compute the same is
described. The declination of the Sun is determined with the knowledge of
the intersection point ( in Figure 13.1) and the maximum divergence R sin
of the ecliptic and the celestial equator. Similarly, the declination of the
Moon can be determined if we know (i) the point where the celestial equator
and the viks.epa-vr.tta (lunar orbit) intersect, (ii) the maximum divergence
between them, and (iii) the position of the Moon on the viks.epa-vr.tta.

13.3

Viks.epa

The viks.epa-vr.tta will intersect the ecliptic at R


ahu (ascending node of the
Moon) and Ketu (descending node) and diverge northwards and southwards
respectively, from those points. A method to determine the intersection
point of the celestial equator and the viks.epa-vr.tta, and their maximum

13.3 Viks.epa

divergence, is described first in qualitative terms. For this, four distinct


cases are discussed.

Case 1: R
ahu at the vernal equinox:
Here, the maximum declination () on the ecliptic and maximum viks.epa (i)
on the viks.epa-vr.tta are both on the north-south circle as shown in Figure
13.1. The maximum possible declination of the Moon on that day will be
equal to the sum of these two ( + i). Then, the declination of the Moon can
be determined with the knowledge of its position on the viks.epa-vr.tta, as the
inclination of viks.epa-vr.tta with the equator is ( + i). The viks.epa-p
arsva1 is
the northern pole (V0 ) of the viks.epa-vr.tta. When the R
ahu is at the vernal
equinox, the distance between this and the north celestial pole is equal to
( + i).
The viks.epa-p
arsva is the (north) pole of the viks.epa-vr.tta, just as the north
celestial pole is the pole of the celestial equator or the r
asi-k
u.t a is the pole
of the ecliptic. Whatever be the position of R
ahu, the distance between the
celestial pole and the viks.epa-p
arsva is equal to the maximum divergence
between the equator and the viks.epa-vr.tta.

Case 2: R

In this case, the viks.epa-vr.tta would be deflected towards the north from
the vernal equinox by the measure of maximum viks.epa as shown in Figure
13.2. The viks.epa-p
arsva2 would be deflected towards west from V0 and
would be at VW , with the arc length KVW = i. The distance between
the (celestial) pole P and VW is the viks.ep

passing through P and VW is called viks.ep

arsva is at V0 separated from K by the maximum viks.epa
i. Drop a perpendicular V0 T from V0 to OK, where O is the centre of the
sphere. As the arc V0 K = i, V0 T = R sin i. Draw a circle with radius R sin i
centered at T in the plane perpendicular to OT . This is the viks.epa-p
arsvavr.tta. It may be noted that this circle (shown separately in Figure 13.5(b)
will be parallel to the plane of the ecliptic.4 ) Mark a point V on this circle

ahu,
N . Drop a perpendicular T U from T to the aks.a-dan.d.a OP . Conceive a
circle with U as the centre and T U as the radius in the plane perpendicular
to OP . The relationship between this circle and the viks.epa-p
arsva-vr.tta is
the same as that of the kaks.y
a-vr.tta and the ucca-nca-vr.tta. Now,
OT
and T U

is the radius of the kaks.y


a-vr.tta. Draw V M perpendicular to V0 T . Then,
V M = R sin i sin N and M T = R sin i cos N play the role of bhuj
a-phala
and kot.i-phala respectively in the determination of V U , which is the karn.a.
It must be noted that V M is along the east-west direction and perpendicular
to the plane of the figure. It is the distance between V and the north-south
circle. When the R
ahu is between Makar
adi and Karky
adi (or equivalently
N is between 270 and 90 ), the kot.i-phala has to be added to the representative of trijy
a which is T U . Similarly, when it is between Karky
adi and
Makar
adi (N is between 90 and 270 ), the kot.i-phala is to be subtracted.
(Actually the kot.i-phala has to be projected along T U before this is done;
this becomes clear in the next section). When R
ahu is at the vernal equinox,
viks.epa-p
arsva is at V0 and V P would be maximum. Similarly, when R
ahu
is at the autumnal equinox, viks.epa-p
arsva is at V and V P is minimum.
The viks.epa-p
arsva is in the eastern part of the sphere (or to the east of
the north-south circle), when R
ahu moves from the vernal equinox to the
autumnal equinox (or N is between 0 and 180 ). Then the viks.epa-vis.uvat
is situated east of the equinox, and viks.epa-calana is to be subtracted (from
the longitude of the Moon) while calculating Moons declination. Similarly,
the viks.epa-vis.uvat is situated west of the equinox, when the R
ahu moves
from the autumnal equinox to the vernal equinox (or N is between 180
and 360 ), and viks.epa-calana is to be added (to the longitude of the Moon)
while calculating Moons declination.

M M be perpendicular to U M which is the extension of U T . The angle

Viks.epa-calana is to be applied to the s


ayana-candra to obtain the distance

that is CCh . Then the declination of the Moon, R sin M , is given by
R sin M = R sin Ch Ch = R sin I sin(CCh ),

(13.9)

as I is the inclination and CCh is the arc.


Here, it is not specified how the viks.epa-calana is actually applied to the
s
ayana-candra to obtain the arc CCh along the lunar orbit (viks.epa-vr.tta).
In Tantrasangraha

(VI, 36), the declination of the Moon is stated to be


R sin(M C) sin I, where M is the s
ayana longitude of the Moon (Q in
Figure 13.8) and C is the viks.epa-calana. Perhaps, this is what is implied
here also. This could be understood as follows, when the inclination of

CCh = Ch R + RC,

(where R is R

(13.10)

Here we have taken RCh RQ and R CR C. These are fairly good


approximations, to the first order in the inclination i, as cos i is taken to be
1 in both the cases. Hence,
R sin M = R sin I sin(M C).

Derivation of Vyatpata

(13.11)

As already stated, vyatp


ata occurs when the declinations of the Moon (calculated as above, taking into account viks.epa-calana) and the Sun are equal,
and when one of them is in the odd quadrant, and the other in the even quadrant. First, the instant of vyatp
ata is estimated in an approximate manner
from the longitudes of the Sun and Moon on any day. This approximate
instant is the zeroth approximation and is denoted by t0 . The declination
of the Sun is given by
R sin s = R sin sin S .

(13.12)

The declination of the Moon is calculated using the procedure described in


the previous sections, and that is equated to the declination of the Sun as
follows:
R sin M = R sin I sin(M C) = R sin sin s .

(13.13)

820

13. Vyatp
ata

From this, the longitude of the Moon, M is calculated from the arc corresponding to the expression below (and adding the viks.epa-calana):
R sin(M C) =

R sin sin s
.
sin I

(13.14)

M , calculated in this manner from the Suns longitude (and other quantities), would not coincide with M calculated directly, as the instant of
vyatp
ata is yet to be found. If M (from Sun) > M (direct), and the Moon
is in the odd quadrant, the declination of the Moon is less than that of the
Sun and the vyatp
ata is yet to occur. Similarly, the vyatp
ata has already occurred if M (from Sun) < M (direct), with the Moon in the odd quadrant.
In the even quadrant, it is the other way round.
In any case, 1 = M (Sun) - M (direct), is found. This is the angle to
be covered. As the Sun and Moon are moving in opposite directions for
vyatp
ata, the above is divided by the sum of the daily motions of the Sun
and the Moon to obtain the instant at which vyatp
ata will occur as a first
approximation. That is, the approximation for the instant of vyatp
ata is
t1 = t0 + t1 , where
t1 =

M (Sun) M (direct)
1
=
,
M + S
M + S

(13.15)

where M and S are the daily motions of the Moon and Sun respectively
at t0 . The above result which is in units of days has to be multiplied by 60
to obtain it in n
ad.ik
a-s.
The longitudes of the Sun or Moon are calculated at t1 by multiplying t1
by S or M and adding the results to S or M at t0 . In the case of
Moons node, t1 should be multiplied by N (daily motion of the node)
and subtracted from N at t0 , as the motion of Moons node is retrograde.
Again, the longitude of the Moon is calculated from that of the Sun by
equating its declination with that of the Sun, and 2 = M (Sun) M
(direct) is found. Then, the next approximation for the instant of vyatp
ata
is
t1 + t2 = t0 + t1 + t2 ,
(13.16)
where,
t2 =

(13.17)

13.8 Derivation of Vyatp


ata

821

This iteration procedure is carried on till the longitude of the Moon as calculated from that of the Sun (by equating the declination) and that obtained
directly, are equal (to the desired accuracy). Thus,
t = t0 + t1 + t2 . . . ,

(13.18)

is the instant of vyatp


ata where the declinations of the Sun and Moon are
equal. At any stage, t is positive or negative, when M (Sun) is greater or
less than M (direct), when the Moon is in an odd quadrant (that is, when
its declination keeps increasing with time). It is the other way round, when
Moon is in an even quadrant. Thus, it is clear that vyatp
ata can occur only
when the declination circle of some part of Moons orb is identical with that
of a part of Suns orb at the same instant.6

Towards the end of the chapter, it is stated that the duration of vyatp
ata is 4 n
ad.ik
a-s.
What this means is not clear and perhaps this cannot be true. The procedure for calculating the half-duration of vyatp
ata is described in Tantrasangraha.

Chapter 14
Maud.hya and Visibility Correction
to Planets
Here, the lagna corresponding to the rising and setting of a planet having a latitudinal deflection (viks.epa), is calculated. The visibility correction
(darsana-sam
ara) is the correction that should be applied to the longitude
. sk
of the planet to obtain the lagna corresponding to the rising and setting of
the planets.

14.1

Computation of visibility correction

Consider the situation in Figure 14.1 when the point L on the ecliptic, having
the same longitude as the planet P , is on the horizon, or L is the lagna. The
planet P has a (northern) latitude and P P is the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta parallel
to the ecliptic, with C as the centre. K1 P L and K1 P L are the arcs of the
r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s passing through P and P (point in the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta
on the horizon) respectively. Here K1 is the northern r
asi-k
u.ta. V is the
dr.kks.epa whose zenith distance is ZV = zv , also referred to as dr.kks.epa.
ZK1 M M is a vertical circle and it is clear that
= 90 zv .
ZK1 = 90 zv , K1 M = zv and M M = P LL
As L is at 90 from both Z and K1 , it is the pole of the vertical Z1 KM M .
= zv .
Hence, LM = LK1 = 90 and K1 LP

Now, drop a perpendicular P F from P to the plane of the horizon. Clearly,


P F is the sanku
of P , whose zenith distance is ZP = z. Also, the arc LP =
= K1 LM
= zv , with
(latitude of the planet) is inclined at an angle, P LM

the arc LP M . Therefore,


P F = R cos z = R sin zv sin .

Draw P P1 perpendicular to CP and P1 F1 perpendicular to OL. It is clear
that P1 F1 = P F = R cos z. Now, P1 F1 P is a right angled triangle with
P1 P F1 = 90 zv , and this is the angle between the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta and
the horizon, which is the same as the angle between the ecliptic and the

Rising and setting of planets

Consider the angle between the r

u.ta-vr.tta-s K1 P L and K1 P L in
Figure 14.1. It corresponds to the arc LL on the ecliptic and
= LOL
.
= P CP

(14.3)

Now, the planes of the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta and ecliptic are parallel and, just
as P P1 is perpendicular to CP, L F1 is perpendicular to OL. Hence,
L F1 = R sin .

(14.4)

As the radius of the viks.epa-kot.i-vr.tta is R cos ,


P P1 = CP sin = R cos sin .

(14.5)

R sin zv sin
P P1

(14.6)

Hence,
R sin =

From this, the arc LL = is obtained. This formula is the same as the
one for cara, with zv replacing the latitude of the place, and replacing the
declination .
Now consider the situation when the planet is at P on the horizon, i.e., it
is rising. Then, the lagna L is given by
L = L LL

= Longitude of the planet ,

(14.7)

where the arc LL = is calculated as above. So, the visibility correction


(), is subtracted in this case. When the planet has a southern latitude,
which is also shown in Figure 14.1, the visibility correction , which is the
angle between the r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta-s passing through the planet at P and the
lagna at L, is calculated in the same manner. In this case, the lagna is given
by
L = L + LL
= Longitude of the planet + ,
and hence, the correction has to be added.

(14.8)

14.2 Rising and setting of planets

825

At the setting, there is reversal of addition and subtraction. In fact, the


same figure can be used, with the only difference being that L and L are
westwards now. As the longitude is always measured eastwards, it is clear
that when the viks.epa is north, the lagna will be greater than the longitude of
the planet (visibility correction is added). Similarly, the visibility correction
is subtracted when the latitude is south.

It may be noted that the dr.kks.epa V is south, when the northern r

K1 is above the horizon (Figure 14.1). In Figure 14.2, the situation when the
southern r
asi-k
u.ta K2 is above the horizon is displayed. Here, the dr.kks.epa

is north. P and P correspond to raising points of a planet with northern


and southern latitudes respectively, and L is the lagna. Then the visibility
correction is LL when the planet has a northern latitude and it has to
be added to the longitude of the planet (L ) to obtain the lagna (L).
Similarly, the visibility correction is LL , when the planet has a southern
latitude and it has to be subtracted from the longitude of the planet(L )
to obtain the lagna (L). Hence, this is the reverse of the situation when
the northern r
asi-k
u.t a is above the horizon.
In both the cases, the darsana-sam
ara (visibility correction) should be
. sk
added to the planets longitude when the directions of the viks.epa and the

826

14. Maud.hya and Visibility Correction to Planets

dr.kks.epa are the same, and subtracted from it when the directions of these
two are opposite, to obtain the lagna. At the setting we have the reverse
situation.

14.3

Planetary visibility

Having determined the lagna at the rising and setting of a planet, the corresponding k
ala-lagna is determined (as described in Chapter 11). The difference in k
ala-lagna-s of the planet and the Sun (in terms of minutes of time)
is found. The planet is visible only when this difference is more than a specified measure.1 The method for obtaining the madhya-lagna of a planet with
viks.epa is stated to be similar. The madhya-lagna does not depend on the
latitude of the place, as it is the meridian ecliptic point, and the meridian
or the north-south circle is the same for places with or without latitude.

This measure is not specified in this Text, whereas in chapter 7 of Tantrasangraha,

the minimum angular separation in degrees for visibility are specified to be 12, 17, 13, 11,
9 and 15 for the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn respectively.

Chapter 15
Elevation of the Moons Cusps
Though the title of this short chapter is candra-s.rngonnati

or Elevation
of the Moons Cusps, it is exclusively devoted to the computation of the
distance between the centres of the lunar and solar discs (bimb

bimb

phase and the elevation of its cusps, but these are not discussed in the Text
as available.

The Dvitya-sphut.a-karn.a of the Sun and the


Moon

In chapter 11, prior to the discussion on ch


ay
a-lambana, the calculation
of dvitya-sphut.a-karn.a (section 11.36) which is the actual distance of the
Sun and the Moon from the centre of the Earth, after taking into account
the second correction (essentially, the evection term), was discussed. The
second correction has to be applied to the manda-sphut.a of the Moon, to
obtain the true longitude. (In the case of the Sun, there is no correction
to the manda-sphut.a, as the mandocca of second correction is in the same
direction as manda-sphut. a of the Sun). Here the view of Siddh

The dr.kkarn.a, or the distance of the planet from the observer on the surface

In Figure 15.1, the Sun S without nati is conceived to be at the zenith and
the ecliptic is conceived as the prime vertical with its poles on the North and
South points. The r
asi-k
u.ta-vr.tta through the Sun will be the north-south
circle. (In the figure, the ecliptic which is the prime vertical is in the plane
of the paper). If O is the center of the sphere, OS is the vertical line.
Case 1: Consider the Sun without nati at S, and the Moon without viks.epa
at M . Draw M Q perpendicular to the vertical line. If is the difference in
their longitudes,
M Q = R sin = Bhuj

(15.2)

Case 2: Now consider the Moon with latitude at M and the Sun without

= = latitude (c
M OM
apa of viks.epa),

M M = R sin = viks.epa,
M M = R(1 cos ) = viks.epa-sara,
OM = R cos .

(15.3)

Now we have to find the distance between M and S. From M drop perpendiculars M P and M Q on M Q and OS respectively. Then,
M Q = P Q = R cos sin .

(15.4)

Equation (15.4) can also be obtained as follows:


MP

= R(1 cos ) sin

= Bhuj
a-phala of viks.epa-sara.

(15.5)

Hence,
M Q = P Q = M Q M P

= R sin R(1 cos ) sin

= R cos sin .

Now,
QQ = P M = M M cos
= R cos (1 cos )

The difference in the longitudes of the Sun and Moon is assumed to be less than 90 .

SQ is the distance between the Sun and the foot of the bhuj
a-jy
a (Q ), which

is drawn from the foot of the viks.epa (M ). It is given by


SQ = SQ + QQ
= R(1 cos ) + R cos (1 cos )
= R(1 cos cos ).

(15.9)

Then, SM which is the distance between the Sun and the foot of the viks.epa,
is given by
p
SQ2 + M Q2
SM =
q
R2 (1 cos cos )2 + R2 sin2 cos2 .
=
(15.10)

Now the viks.epa M M is perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic and is


perpendicular to SM . Therefore,
SM 2 = SM 2 + M M 2
= R2 (1 cos cos )2 +

R2 sin2 cos2 + R2 sin2 .

(15.11)

SM which is the square root of this is the distance between the Sun, S
(without nati) and the Moon M (with viks.epa).
Case 3: Now consider the case when the Sun has nati and it is at S ,
separated from the ecliptic by the arc SS = s . Drop a perpendicular S S
from S to the vertical, OS. S S is perpendicular to the ecliptic and to OS.
Then,
S S = R sin s = nati,
and

SS

= R(1 cos s )

= Arkonnati-sara.

(15.12)
(15.13)

Then,
S Q = SQ SS

(15.14)

15.2 Distance between the orbs of the Sun and the Moon

is the vertical distance between the base of the nati-sara and the base of the
bhuj
a-jy
a. It may be noted that
QQ = kot.i-phala of Moons ks.epa-sara
= R cos (1 cos ).

(15.15)

Then,
S Q = S Q + QQ
= R(1 cos ) R(1 cos s ) + R cos (1 cos )

= r1 ,

(15.16)

is one quantity (r
asi), which is the vertical distance between the Sun and
the Moon.
The horizontal distance M Q between the Sun and the Moon in the plane
of the ecliptic is the second quantity given by,
r2 = M Q = R(1 cos cos ).
Clearly,
S M =

r12 + r22 .

(15.17)

(15.18)

The sum or difference of the nati-s of the Sun and Moon is the third quantity,
r3 . This is the distance between the Sun and the Moon along the line
perpendicular to the ecliptic (plane of the paper in Figure 15.1). If the
nati-s are in the same direction with respect to the ecliptic, the difference is
to be considered. If they are in the opposite directions, the sum of the nati-s
is to be taken. In Figure 15.1, where both the nati-s are above the plane of
the paper, we have
r3 = M M S S = R sin R sin s .

(15.19)

Then the bimb


antara or the distance S M between the centres of the lunar
and solar discs is given by
q
(15.20)
Bimb
antara = r12 + r22 + r32 .
This can be understood as follows:

In Figure 15.2, S M is in the plane of the ecliptic (of the paper). S S and
M M are perpendicular to the plane of the paper. Let
M T = S S = N ati of Sun.

(15.22)
Hence, r1 , r2 and r3 are essentially the differences in the coordinates of the
Sun and the Moon along the vertical, east-west (horizontal direction in the
plane of the paper), and the north-south directions respectively. This is the
rationale for the expression for the bimb
antara.

Case 4: Now consider the case when the difference between the longitudes
of the Sun and Moon is more than 90 . In this case, the treatment is similar
except that the zenith Z is conceived to be situated exactly midway between
the Sun and the Moon, without viks.epa or nati, at S and M respectively
(see Figure 15.3). The line SM cuts the vertical at Q. As the arcs ZM and
ZS are both equal to half the difference in longitudes, we have

Epilogue
Revision of Indian Planetary Model by
Nilakan.t.ha Somay
aji (c. 1500 AD)
It is now generally recognised that the Kerala School of Indian astronomy,1
starting with Madhava of Sangamagr

ama in the fourteenth century, made


important contributions to mathematical analysis much before this subject
developed in Europe. The Kerala astronomers derived infinite series for ,
sine and cosine functions and also developed fast convergent approximations
to them. Here, we shall discuss how the Kerala School also made equally
significant discoveries in astronomy, in particular, planetary theory.
Madhavas disciple Paramesvara of Vat.asseri (c. 1380-1460) is reputed to
have made continuous and careful observations for a period of over fiftyfive years. He is famous as the originator of the Dr.g-gan.ita system, which
replaced the older Parahita system. Nlakan.t.ha Somayaj of Tr.kkan.t.iyur
(c. 1444-1550), disciple of Paramesvaras son Damodara, carried out an even
more fundamental revision of the traditional planetary theory. In his treatise
Tantrasangraha

(c. 1500), Nlakan.t.ha Somayaj presents a major revision


of the earlier Indian planetary model for the interior planets Mercury and
Venus. This led Nlakan.t.ha Somayaj to a much better formulation of the
equation of centre and the latitude of these planets than was available either
in the earlier Indian works or in the Islamic or the Greco-European traditions

The material in this Epilogue is based on the following sources, which may be consulted

of astronomy till the work of Kepler, which was to come more than a hundred
years later.
Nlakan.t.ha Somayaj was the first savant in the history of astronomy to
clearly deduce from his computational scheme and the observed motion of
the planets and not from any speculative or cosmological arguments
that the interior planets go around the Sun and the period of their motion
around Sun is also the period of their latitudinal motion. He explains in

his Aryabhat
a.sya that the Earth is not circumscribed by the orbit of
.ya-bh
the interior planets, Mercury and Venus; and the mean period of motion in
longitude of these planets around the Earth is the same as that of the Sun,
precisely because they are being carried around the Earth by the Sun. In his
works, Golas
ara and Siddh
antadarpan. a, Nlakan.t.ha Somayaj describes the
geometrical picture of planetary motion that follows from his revised model,
where the five planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn move in
eccentric orbits around the mean Sun, which in turn goes around the Earth.
Most of the Kerala astronomers who succeeded Nlakan.t.ha Somayaj, such
as Jyes.t.hadeva, Acyuta Pis.
arat.i, Putumana Somayaj, etc., seem to have
adopted this revised planetary model.

The conventional planetary model of Indian astronomy

In the Indian astronomical tradition, at least from the time of Aryabhat


.a
(499 AD), the procedure for calculating the geocentric longitudes for the five
planets, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn involves essentially the
following steps.2 First, the mean longitude (called the madhyama-graha) is
calculated for the desired day by computing the number of mean civil days
elapsed since the epoch (this number is called the ahargan.a) and multiplying
it by the mean daily motion of the planet. Then, two corrections namely
the manda-sam
ara and sghra-sam
ara are applied to the mean planet
. sk
. sk
to obtain the true longitude.

1 Conventional planetary model

839

In the case of the exterior planets, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, the mandasam
ara is equivalent to taking into account the eccentricity of the planets
. sk
orbit around the Sun. Different computational schemes for the mandasam
ara are discussed in Indian astronomical literature. However, the
. sk
manda correction in all these schemes coincides, to first order in eccentricity, with the equation of centre as currently calculated in astronomy. The
manda-corrected mean longitude is called manda-sphut. a-graha. For the exterior planets, the manda-sphut. a-graha is the same as the true heliocentric
longitude.
The sghra-sam
ara is applied to this manda-sphut.a-graha to obtain the
. sk
true geocentric longitude known as sphut.a-graha. The sghra correction is
equivalent to converting the heliocentric longitude into geocentric longitude.
The exterior and interior planets are treated differently in applying this
correction. We shall now briefly discuss the details of the manda-sam
ara
. sk
and the sghra-sam

for
the
exterior
and
the
interior
planets
respectively.
.

1.1

Exterior planets

For the exterior planets, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, the mean heliocentric
sidereal period is identical with the mean geocentric sidereal period. Thus,
the mean longitude calculated prior to the manda-sam
ara is the same as
. sk
the mean heliocentric longitude of the planet as we understand today. As
the manda-sam
ara, or the equation of centre, is applied to this longitude
. sk
to obtain the manda-sphut.a-graha, the latter will be the true heliocentric
longitude of the planet.
The manda-sam
ara for the exterior planets can be explained using a simple
. sk
3
epicycle model as shown in Figure 1. Here O is the centre of the concentric
circle called kaks.y
a-man.d.ala. P0 is the mean planet on the concentric, and
P is the true planet (manda-sphut. a) on the epicycle. OU is the direction
of mandocca or the aphelion. P P0 = OU = r, is the radius of the epicycle
and OP0 = R is the radius of the concentric. OP = K is the manda-karn.a.
The longitudes are always measured in Indian astronomy with respect to a
fixed point in the zodiac known as the nirayan.a-mes.a
di denoted by A in the
figure.

Equivalently this can be explained with an eccentric model also.

The manda-sphut.a ms can be evaluated without calculating the true radius
of the epicycle r or the manda-karn. a K. The texts however give a process of
iteration by which the manda-karn.a K (and hence the epicycle radius r also)
can be evaluated to any given degree of accuracy.4 The for the exterior
planets can be explained with reference to Figure 2. The nirayan.a-mes.a

denoted by A in the figure, E is the Earth and P the planet. The mean Sun
S is referred to as the sghrocca for exterior planets. We have

ASP

AES

AEP
=

(manda-sphut. a)
(longitude of sghrocca (mean Sun))
(geocentric longitude of the planet).

The difference between the longitudes of the sghrocca and the manda-sphut. a,
namely,
= s ms ,
(4)
is called the sghra-kendra (anomaly of conjunction) in Indian astronomy.
From the triangle EP S we can easily obtain the result
sin( ms ) =

r sin

[(R + r cos )2 + r 2 sin2 ] 2

(5)

which is the sghra correction formula given by Indian astronomers to calculate the geocentric longitude of an exterior planet.
From the figure it is clear that the sghra-sam
ara transforms the true
. sk
heliocentric longitudes into true geocentric longitudes. This will work only
if Rr is equal to the ratio of the Earth-Sun and planet-Sun distances and is
indeed very nearly so in the Indian texts. But (5) is still an approximation
as it is based upon the mean Sun and not the true Sun.

Interior planets

For the interior planets Mercury and Venus, ancient Indian astronomers, at

least from the time of Aryabhat


. a, took the mean Sun as the madhyamagraha or the mean planet. For these planets, the mean heliocentric sidereal
period is the period of revolution of the planet around the Sun, while the
mean geocentric sidereal period is the same as that of the Sun. The ancient
astronomers prescribed the application of manda correction or the equation
of centre characteristic of the planet, to the mean Sun, instead of the mean
heliocentric planet as is done in the currently accepted model of the solar
system. However, the ancient Indian astronomers also introduced the notion of the sghrocca for these planets whose period is the same as the mean
heliocentric sidereal period of these planets. Thus, in the case of the interior planets, it is the longitude of the sghrocca which will be the same as
the mean heliocentric longitude of the planet as understood in the currently
accepted model for the solar system.

The sghra-sam
ara for the interior planets can be explained with reference
. sk
to Figure 3. Here E is the Earth and S (manda-corrected mean Sun) is the

manda-sphut.a-graha and P corresponds to the planet. We have,

AES

and the manda-sphut.a-graha as in (4). Thus, from the triangle EP S we get
the same formula

which is the sghra correction given in the earlier Indian texts to calculate

the value specified for Rr is very nearly equal to the ratio of the planet-Sun

and Earth-Sun distances. In Table 1, we give Aryabhat


. as values for both
the exterior and interior planets along with the modern values based on the
mean Earth-Sun and Sun-planet distances.

Since the manda correction or equation of centre for an interior planet was
applied to the longitude of the mean Sun instead of the mean heliocentric
longitude of the planet, the accuracy of the computed longitudes of the
interior planets according to the ancient Indian planetary models would not
have been as good as that achieved for the exterior planets.

Computation of planetary latitudes

Planetary latitudes (called viks.epa in Indian astronomy) play an important


role in the prediction of planetary conjunctions, occultation of stars by planets, etc. In Figure 4, P denotes the planet moving in an orbit inclined at
angle i to the ecliptic, intersecting the ecliptic at the point N , the node
(called p
ata in Indian astronomy). If is the latitude of the planet, h its
heliocentric longitude, and 0 the heliocentric longitude of the node, then
for small i we have
sin = sin i sin(h 0 ).
(7)
This is also essentially the rule for calculating the latitude, as given in Indian
6

texts, at least from the time of Aryabhat


. a. For the exterior planets, it was
5
Ratio of the mean values of Earth-Sun and planet-Sun distances for the exterior planets
and the inverse ratio for the interior planets.
6
Equation (7) actually gives the heliocentric latitude and needs to be multiplied by
the ratio of the geocentric and heliocentric distances of the planet to get the geocentric
latitude. This feature was implicit in the traditional planetary models.

stipulated that
h = ms ,

(8)

the manda-sphut.a-graha, which as we saw earlier, coincides with the heliocentric longitude of the exterior planet. The same rule applied for interior
planets would not have worked, because according to the traditional Indian
planetary model, the manda-corrected mean longitude for the interior planet
has nothing to do with its true heliocentric longitude. However, all the older
Indian texts on astronomy stipulated that, in the case of the interior planets,
the latitude is to be calculated from (7) with
h = s + manda correction,

(9)

the manda-corrected longitude of the sghrocca. Since the longitude of the


sghrocca for an interior planet, as we explained above, is equal to the mean
heliocentric longitude of the planet, (9) leads to the correct identification so
that, even for an interior planet, h in (7) becomes identical with the true
heliocentric longitude.
Thus, we see that the earlier Indian astronomical texts did provide a fairly
accurate theory for the planetary latitudes. But they had to live with two
entirely different rules for calculating latitudes, one for the exterior planets
given by (8), where the manda-sphut.a-graha appears and an entirely
different one for the interior planets given by (9), which involves the sghrocca
of the planet, with the manda correction included.
This peculiarity of the rule for calculating the latitude of an interior planet
was repeatedly noticed by various Indian astronomers, at least from the time

of Bh
askarac
arya I (c. 629), who in his Aryabhat
a.sya drew attention to
.ya-bh

846

the fact that the procedure given in Aryabhat


.ya, for calculating the latitude
of an interior planet, is indeed very different from that adopted for the
exterior planets.7 The celebrated astronomer Bhaskaracarya II (c. 1150) also
draws attention to this peculiar procedure adopted for the interior planets, in
his V
asan
a-bh
as.ya on his own Siddh
antasiroman. i, and quotes the statement
of Caturveda Pr.th
udakasvamin (c. 860) that this peculiar procedure for the
interior planets can be justified only on the ground that this is what has
been found to lead to predictions that are in conformity with observations.8

Planetary model of Nlakan.t.ha Somayaj

Nlakan.t.ha Somayaj (c. 1444-1550), the renowned Kerala astronomer, appears to have been led to his important reformulation of the conventional
planetary model, mainly by the fact that it seemingly employed two entirely
different rules for the calculation of planetary latitudes. As he explains in

his Aryabhat
a.sya,9 the latitude arises from the deflection of the planet
.ya-bh
(from the ecliptic) and not from that of a sghrocca, which is different from
the planet. Therefore, he argues that what was thought of as being the
sghrocca of an interior planet should be identified with the mean planet
itself and the manda correction is to be applied to this mean planet, and
not to the mean Sun. This, Nlakan.t.ha argues, would render the rule for
calculation of latitudes to be the same for all planets, exterior or interior.
Nlakan.t.ha has presented his improved planetary model for the interior planets in his treatise Tantrasangraha

which, according to Nlakan.t.has pupil

Sankara

Variyar, was composed in 1500 AD.10 We shall describe here, the


main features of Nlakan.t.has model in so far as they differ from the conventional Indian planetary model for the interior planets.11

3 Planetary model of Nlakan.t.ha Somayaj

847

In the first chapter of Tantrasangraha,

while presenting the mean sidereal


periods of planets, Nlakan.t.ha gives the usual values of 87.966 days and
224.702 days (which are traditionally ascribed to the sghrocca-s of Mercury and Venus), but asserts that these are svaparyaya-s, i.e., the mean
revolution periods of the planets themselves.12 As these are the mean heliocentric periods of these planets, the madhyama-graha or the mean longitude
as calculated in Nlakan.t.has model would be equal to the mean heliocentric
longitude of the planet, for both the interior and exterior planets.
In the second chapter of Tantrasangraha,

Nlakan.t.ha discusses the manda


correction or the equation of centre and states13 that this should be applied
to the madhyama-graha as described above to obtain the manda-sphut. agraha. Thus, in Nlakan.t.has model, the manda-sphut. a-graha will be equal
to the true heliocentric longitude for both the interior and exterior planets.
Subsequently, the sphut.a-graha or the geocentric longitude is to be obtained
by applying the sghra correction. While Nlakan.t.has formulation of the
sghra correction is the same as in the earlier planetary theory for the exterior
planets, his formulation of the sghra correction for the interior planets is
different. According to Nlakan.t.ha, the mean Sun should be taken as the
sghrocca for interior planets also, just as in the case of exterior planets.
In Figure 5, P is the manda-corrected planet. E is the Earth and S the
sghrocca or the mean Sun. We have,

The sghra-kendra is defined in the usual way (4) as the difference between
the sghrocca and the manda-sphut. a-graha. Then from triangle ESP , we get

was
published nearly fifty years ago, this crucial departure from the conventional planetary
model introduced by Nlakan.t.ha seems to have been totally overlooked in most of the
studies on Indian Astronomy. For instance, Pingree in his review article on Indian Astronomy presents the mean rates of motion of Mercury and Venus given in Tantrasangraha

as
the rates of motion of their sghrocca-s (D. Pingree, History of Mathematical Astronomy
in India, in Dictionary of Scientific Biography, Vol.XV, New York 1978, p. 622).

which is the sghra correction given by Nlakan.t.ha for calculating the geocentric longitude of the planet. Comparing (10) with (6), and Figure 5 with
Figure 3, we notice that they are the same except for the interchange of the
sghrocca and the manda-sphut.a-graha. The manda correction or the equation of centre is now associated with P whereas it was associated with S
earlier.
In the seventh chapter of Tantrasangraha,

Nlakan.t.ha gives formula (7) for


14
calculating the latitudes of planets, and prescribes that for all planets, both
exterior and interior, h in (7) should be the manda-sphut. a-graha. This is as
it should be for, in Nlakan.t.has model, the manda-sphut.a-graha (the mandacorrected mean longitude) coincides with the true heliocentric longitude, for
both the exterior and interior planets. Thus Nlakan.t.ha, by his modification
of traditional Indian planetary theory, solved the long-standing problem in
Indian astronomy, of there being two different rules for calculating the planetary latitudes.
In this way, perhaps for the first time in the history of astronomy, Nlakan.t.ha,
by 1500 AD, had arrived at a consistent formulation of the equation of centre
14

cited above, p. 139.

849

and a reasonable planetary model that is applicable also to the interior planets. As in the conventional Indian planetary model, the ancient Greek planetary model of Ptolemy and the planetary models developed in the Islamic
tradition during the 8th-15th centuries also postulated that the equation of
centre for an interior planet should be applied to the mean Sun, rather than
to the mean heliocentric longitude of the planet as we understand today. In
fact, Ptolemy seems to have compounded the confusion by clubbing together
Venus along with the exterior planets and singling out Mercury as following
a slightly deviant geometrical model of motion.15 Further, while the ancient
Indian astronomers successfully used the notion of the sghrocca to arrive at
a satisfactory theory of the latitudes of the interior planets, the Ptolemaic
model is totally off the mark when it comes to the question of latitudes of
these planets.16

Even the celebrated Copernican Revolution brought about no improvement


in the planetary theory for the interior planets. As is widely known now, the
Copernican model was only a reformulation of the Ptolemaic model (with
some modifications borrowed from the Maragha School of Astronomy of
Nasir ad-Din at-Tusi (c. 1201-74), Ibn ash-Shatir (c. 1304-75) and others) for
a heliocentric frame of reference, without altering its computational scheme
in any substantial way for the interior planets. As a recent study notes:

Copernicus, ignorant of his own riches, took it upon himself for


the most part to represent Ptolemy, not nature, to which he had
nevertheless come the closest of all. In this famous and just
assessment of Copernicus, Kepler was referring to the latitude
theory of Book V [of De Revolutionibus] , specifically to the librations of the inclinations of the planes of the eccentrics, not
15

See for example, The The Almagest by Ptolemy, Translated by G. J. Toomer, London
1984. For the exterior planets, the ancient Indian planetary model and the model described
by Ptolemy are very similar except that, while the Indian astronomers use a variable radius
epicycle, Ptolemy introduces the notion of an equant. Ptolemy adopts the same model for
Venus also, and presents a slightly different model for Mercury. In both cases the equation
of centre is applied to the mean Sun.
16
As a well known historian of astronomy has remarked: In no other part of planetary
theory did the fundamental error of the Ptolemaic system cause so much difficulty as in
accounting for the latitudes, and these remained the chief stumbling block up to the time
of Kepler. (J. L. E. Dreyer, A History of Astronomy from Thales to Kepler, New York
1953, p. 200)

850

Revision of Indian Planetary Model


in accordance with the motion of the planet, but . . . the unrelated motion of the earth. This improbable connection between
the inclinations of the orbital planes and the motion of the earth
was the result of Copernicuss attempt to duplicate the apparent
latitudes of Ptolemys models in which the inclinations of the
epicycle planes were variable. In a way this is nothing new since
Copernicus was also forced to make the equation of centre of the
interior planets depend upon the motion of the earth rather than
the planet.17

Indeed, it appears that the correct rule for applying the equation of centre
for an interior planet to the mean heliocentric planet (as opposed to the
mean Sun), and a satisfactory theory of latitudes for the interior planets,
were first formulated in the Greco-European astronomical tradition only in
the early 17th century by Kepler.

Geometrical model of planetary motion

It is well known that the Indian astronomers were mainly interested in successful computation of the longitudes and latitudes of the Sun, Moon and
the planets, and were not much worried about proposing models of the universe. The Indian astronomical texts usually present detailed computational
schemes for calculating the geocentric positions of the Sun, Moon and the
planets. Their exposition of planetary models, is by and large analytical and
the corresponding geometrical picture of planetary motion is rarely discussed
especially in the basic texts.
However, the Indian astronomers do discuss the geometrical model implied
by their computations at times in the commentaries. The renowned Kerala astronomer Paramesvara of Vat.asseri (c. 1380-1460) has discussed the
geometrical model implied in the conventional planetary model of Indian
astronomy. In his super-commentary Siddh
anta-dpik
a (on Govindasvamins
commentary) on Mah
abh
askarya of Bhaskaracarya-I, Paramesvara gives a
detailed exposition of the geometrical picture of planetary motion as implied

by the conventional model of planetary motion in Indian astronomy.18 A


shorter version of this discussion is available in his commentary Bhat.adpik
a
19

on Aryabhat

ya.
.
Following Paramesvara,20 Nlakan.t.ha has also discussed in detail the geometrical model of motion as implied by his revised planetary model. Nlakan.t.ha
is very much aware that the geometrical picture of planetary motion crucially
depends on the computational scheme employed for calculating the planetary

positions. In his Aryabhat


a.sya, Nlakan.t.ha clearly explains that the
.ya-bh
orbits of the planets, and the various auxiliary figures such as the concentric
and eccentric circles associated with the manda and sghra processes, are to
be inferred from the computational scheme for calculating the sphut.a-graha
(true geocentric longitude) and the viks.epa (latitude of the planets).21
Nlakan.t.has revision of the traditional computational scheme for the longitudes and latitudes of the interior planets, Mercury and Venus, was based
on his clear understanding of the latitudinal motion of these planets. It is
this understanding which also leads him to a correct geometrical picture of
the motion of the interior planets. The best exposition of this revolutionary

discovery by Nlakan.t.ha is to be found in his Aryabhat


a.sya, which is
.ya-bh
reproduced below:

Now he [Aryabhat
. a] explains the nature of the orbits and their
locations for Mercury and Venus... In this way, for Mercury, the
increase of the latitude occurs only for 22 days and then in the
next 22 days the latitude comes down to zero. Thus Mercury
moves on one side of the apaman.d.ala (the plane of the ecliptic)
for 44 days and it moves on the other side during the next 44 days.
Thus one complete period of the latitudinal motion is completed
in 88 days only, as that is the period of revolution of the sghrocca
[of Mercury].

Revision of Indian Planetary Model


The latitudinal motion is said to be due to that of the sghrocca.
How is this appropriate? Isnt the latitudinal motion of a body
dependent on the motion of that body only, and not because
of the motion of something else? The latitudinal motion of one
body cannot be obtained as being due to the motion of another
body. Hence [we should conclude that] Mercury goes around
its own orbit in 88 days... However this also is not appropriate
because we see it going around [the Earth] in one year and not
in 88 days. True, the period in which Mercury completes one full
revolution around the bhagola (the celestial sphere) is one year
only [like the Sun]...
In the same way Venus also goes around its orbit in 225 days
only...
All this can be explained thus: The orbits of Mercury and Venus
do not circumscribe the earth. The Earth is always outside their
orbit. Since their orbit is always confined to one side of the
[geocentric] celestial sphere, in completing one revolution they
do not go around the twelve r
asi-s (the twelve signs).
For them also really the mean Sun is the sghrocca. It is only
their own revolutions, which are stated to be the revolutions of

the sghrocca [in ancient texts such as the Aryabhat


.ya].
It is only due to the revolution of the Sun [around the Earth]
that they (i.e., the interior planets, Mercury and Venus) complete
their movement around the twelve r
asi-s [and complete their revolution of the Earth]... Just as in the case of the exterior planets
(Jupiter etc.), the sghrocca (i.e., the mean Sun) attracts [and
drags around] the manda-kaks.y
a-man.d.ala (the manda orbits on
which they move), in the same way it does for these [interior]
planets also.22

The above passage exhibits the clinching argument employed by Nlakan.t.ha.


From the fact that the motion of the interior planets is characterised by two
different periods, one for their latitudinal motion and another for their motion in longitude, Nlakan.t.ha arrived at what may be termed a revolutionary discovery concerning the motion of the interior planets: That they go
around the Sun in orbits that do not circumscribe the Earth in a period that

corresponds to the period of their latitudinal motion (which is the period


assigned to their sghrocca-s in the traditional planetary model), and that
they go around the zodiac in one year as they are dragged around the Earth
by the Sun.
It was indeed well known to the ancients that the exterior planets, Mars,
Jupiter and Saturn, also go around the Sun in the same mean period as they
go around the Earth, as they clearly placed the geocentric orbits of these
planets outside that of the Sun. Nlakan.t.ha was the first savant in the history of astronomy to rigourously derive from his computational scheme and
the observed motion of the planets, and not from any speculative or cosmological argument, that the interior planets go around the Sun in a period of
their latitudinal motion. The fact that the mean period of their motion in
longitude around the Earth is the same as that of the Sun is explained as
being due to their being carried around the Earth by the Sun. Nlakan.t.ha
also wrote a tract called Grahasphut. a
nayane viks.epav
asan
a, where he has
set forth his latitude theory in detail. There he has given the qualitative
nature of the orbits of the Sun, Moon and the five planets in a single verse,
which may be cited here:
The Moon and the planets are deflected along their mandakaks.y
a (manda orbit) from the ecliptic both to the North and
the South by amounts depending on their [longitudinal] separation from their nodes. For the Moon the centre of manda-kaks.y
a
is also the centre of the ecliptic. For Mars and other planets,
centre of their manda-kaks.y
a [which is also the centre of their
manda deferent circle], is the mean Sun that lies on the orbit of
the Sun on the ecliptic.23

Nlakan.t.ha presents a clear and succinct statement of the geometrical picture


of the planetary motion as implied by his revised planetary model in two of
his small tracts, Siddh
anta-darpan. a and Golas
ara. We present the version
given in Siddh
antadarpan. a:
The [eccentric] orbits on which planets move (graha-bhraman. avr.tta) themselves move at the same rate as the apsides (ucca-gati)

on manda-vr.tta [or the manda epicycle drawn with its centre
coinciding with the centre of the manda concentric]. In the case
of the Sun and the Moon, the centre of the Earth is the centre
of this manda-vr.tta.
For the others [namely the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter
and Saturn] the centre of the manda-vr.tta moves at the same rate
as the mean Sun (madhy
arka-gati) on the sghra-vr.tta [or the
sghra epicycle drawn with its centre coinciding with the centre
of the sghra concentric]. The sghra-vr.tta for these planets is
not inclined with respect to the ecliptic and has the centre of the
celestial sphere as its centre.
In the case of Mercury and Venus, the dimension of the sghravr.tta is taken to be that of the concentric and the dimensions
[of the epicycles] mentioned are of their own orbits. The mandavr.tta [and hence the manda epicycle of all the planets] undergoes
increase and decrease in size in the same way as the karn.a [or
the hypotenuse or the distance of the planet from the centre of
the manda concentric].24

The geometrical picture described above is presented in Figures 6, 7. It


is important to note that Nlakan.t.ha has a unified model for the both the
exterior and interior planets and the same is reflected in his formulation
of the corresponding geometrical picture of planetary motion. Nlakan.t.has
description of the geometrical picture of the planetary motions involves the
notions of manda-vr.tta and sighra-vr.tta, which are nothing but the manda
and sghra epicycles drawn with the centre of their concentric as the centre.
An important point to be noted is that the geometrical picture of planetary
motion as discussed in Siddh
anta-darpan. a, deals with the orbit of each of the
planets individually and does not put them together in a single geometrical
model of the planetary system. Each of the exterior planets have different
sghra-vr.tta-s, which is in the same plane as the ecliptic, and we have to
take the point where the a
ditya-s
utra (the line drawn from the centre in
the direction of the mean Sun) touches each of these sghra-vr.tta-s as the
centre of the corresponding manda-vr.tta. On this manda-vr.tta the mandocca
is to be located, and with that as the centre the graha-bhraman. a-vr.tta or the
planetary orbit is drawn with the standard radius (trijy
a or R sin 90). In the

Figure 6: Nlakan.t.has geometrical model for an exterior planet

case of the interior planets, Nlakan..tha says that the sghra-vr.tta has to be
drawn with the standard radius (trijy
a or R sin 90) and the graha-bhraman. avr.tta is to be drawn with the given value of the sghra epicycles as the radii.
In this way, we see that the two interior planets can be represented in the
same diagram, as the sghra-vr.tta is the same for both of them.
The integrated model involving all the planets in a single diagram adopting
a single scale, that can be inferred from Nlakan..thas discussions at several places, is essentially following: the five planets, Mercury, Venus, Mars,
Jupiter and Saturn move in eccentric orbits (of variable radii) around the
mean Sun, which goes around the Earth. The planetary orbits are tilted with
respect to the orbit of the Sun or the ecliptic, and hence cause the motion
in latitude. Since it is well known that the basic scale of distances are fairly
accurately represented in the Indian astronomical tradition, as the ratios
of the radius of the sghra epicycle to the radius of the concentric trijy
a is
very nearly the mean ratio of the Earth-Sun and the Earth-planet distances
(for exterior planets) or the inverse of it (for interior planets), the planetary
picture will also be fairly accurate in terms of the scales of distances.

Nlakan.t.has modification of the conventional planetary model of Indian astronomy seems to have been adopted by most of the later astronomers of
the Kerala School. This is not only true of Nlakan.t.has pupils and con nkara
temporaries such as Citrabhanu (c. 1530), Sa

Variyar (c. 1500-1560)


and Jyes.t.hadeva (c. 1500-1600), but also of later astronomers such as Acyuta
Pis.
arat.i (c. 1550-1621), Putumana Somayaj (c. 1660-1740) and others. Incidentally, it may be of interest to note that the well-known Oriya astronomer
of 19th century, Candrasekhara Samanta, who was trained solely in traditional Indian astronomy, wrote a treatise Siddh
anta-darpan. a, in 1869,
wherein he has also discussed a model of planetary motion in which the five
planets, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, go around the Sun.25
